QuestionAnswer

List and describe the 3 pigments that affect the color of the skin melanin - the brown-yellow to black pigment produced by melanocytes in the stratum basale
List and describe the 3 pigments that affect the color of the skin hemaglobin - the protein in blood that transports oxygen - bright red = more oxygen -dark red = less oxygen
What are 2 sources for vitamin D3? sunlight/UV radiation - converts a steroid into cholecalciferol where it enters the blood stream
What are 2 sources for vitamin D3? dietary cholecalciferol - is absorbed by the intestines
What is the function of calcitriol? increases Ca2+ and phosphate ion absorption in the digestive tract needed for bone growth
