The statement above is false. The blood levels of calcium is regulated by parathyroid hormone.When one is not getting adequate calcium in one's diet and the blood level of calcium is low, the parathyroid hormone will be released. The parathyroid hormone can increase the blood calcium in several ways:
1. by stimulating osteoclasts which break down bone and release calcium into the blood stream.
2. by increasing the amount of calcium re-absorbed by the kidney before it can be excreted in urine.
3. by triggering the formation of calcitriol which increases the absorption of dietary calcium at the  intestines.

Which of the following best describes the movement of energy in an ecosystem
balu736 [363]

Energy is started from the sun, with 100 percent of the energy given to plants. when the plants are eaten, only 10% of that energy is given to the animal, like a rabbit. When the rabbit is eaten by a larger predator, only 10% is given of the rabbits energy. This continues, so to find the amount of energy within a certain organism you would need to calculate 10% from each original source of energy
