- Which organ systems are directly related to maiming blood glucose levels and which are indirectly relatedarrow_forwardBetty has a calcium poor diet and because of her age (menopause years) she is concerned about becoming hypocalcemic (low blood calcium). Once the blood levels of calcium start dropping, the body will compensate for hypocalcemia. Receptors continually feed the brain’s hypothalamus (blood-calcium regulatory center) information on calcium blood levels. The parathyroid gland will be stimulated to release parathyroid hormone (PTH). PTH will stimulate osteoclast cells to break down bone and release the stored calcium to the blood, raising the calcium blood level. a. What is the stimulus?b. What is the control center?c. Identify the control center’s response to the stimuli?d. Does the response stop/reverse the stimuli or enhance the stimuli?e. Is the body’s response a negative or positive feedback?arrow_forwardOn the histological section of one of the endocrine glands visible rounded structures of various sizes, the wall of which is formed by a single layer of epithelial cells on the basement membrane, inside these structures contain a homogeneous noncellular mass.
