Answer;

-Endothelium

Explanation;

-Endothelial cells (Endothelium) are often considered specialized epithelial cells which line blood vessels.

-Endothelium are the cells that line the interior surface of blood vessels and lymphatic vessels, forming an interface between circulating blood or lymph in the lumen and the rest of the vessel wall. It is a thin layer of simple, or single-layered, squamous cells called endothelial cells.

-Endothelial cells release substances that control vascular relaxation and contraction as well as enzymes that control blood clotting, immune function and platelet (a colorless substance in the blood) adhesion.

The correct answer is endothelium.

The endothelium is a thin layer of single-layered, squamous cells that can be found in the lumen of blood vessels, on the interior surfaces of the heart chambers, in the glomerulus of the kidney...The main function of endothelium is barrier function when it acts as a semi-selective barrier between the lumen of the vessels and surrounding tissue, and thus, controls the passage of materials. The endothelium is also included in functions such as fluid filtration in the kidneys, the control of blood pressure (vasodilatation and vasoconstriction), inflammation.

Parathyroid hormone is the major regulator of the plasma concentration of__________ ions
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

Calcium

Explanation:

Parathyroid hormone (PTH) is a hormone that is secreted by the parathyroid gland. It is the major regulator of the plasma concentration of calcium ions. It regulates calcium ions in the kidney, intestine and bones.

In the kidney, is involved in the re-absorption of calcium in distal ducts and the renal collecting duct, it is also involved in activating the conversion of 25-hydroxy vitamin D into 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D (calcitriol).

In the intestine,  PTH is involved in the absorption of calcium, by increasing vitamin D production.

In the bone, it helps in regulating calcium levels; when serum calcium level is low, PTH stimulates the activity of the osteoclast, to produce more calcium.
