The hormone calcitonin is controlled by a negative feedback mechanism because it's release leads to the decrease of calcium blood levels.

<h3>What is negative feedback mechanism?</h3>

A negative feedback mechanism is the defined as a type of regulatory mechanism in the body where by the increased output of a system leads to a decrease of another system.

Therefore, the release of the hormone calcitonin (increased level of calcitonin in the blood) will lead to decrease in blood levels of calcium.

Explanation:

<u>Translation is the making of polypeptide with a specified order of amino acids using a RNA molecule to provide the sequence information.</u>

In order word, translation is the process of synthesizing protein from mRNA synthesized from DNA template.

<em>During the process of gene expression, the information in the DNA are first transcribed into a mRNA in the nucleus. Thereafter, the mRNA is transported out of the nucleus to the cytoplasm where the genetic codes present in it are translated into their respective amino acids and become linked together through a peptide bond.</em>

Each polypeptide formed has a specific amino acids which correspond to the codons on the mRNA.
