The answer: Parathyroid hormone (PTH)

Parathyroid hormone (PTH, parathormone, parathyrin) is secreted by the parathyroid cell of the parathyroid gland as a polypeptide containing 84 amino acids. It works by increasing the concentration of calcium (Ca2 +) in the blood, while calcitonin (the hormone-producing the parafollicular cells (C cells) of the thyroid gland) lowers the calcium levels.

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

Cast fossils occur when mold fossils are filled in with minerals that harden over time, creating a fossilized replica of the original organism. Water seeps through the rock surrounding the mold fossil, leaving behind minerals which fill the mold. Any mold fossil can potentially form a cast mold.

baherus [9]

Answer:

Repolarization

Explanation:

Complete repolarization is achieved by the sodium pump. This actively pumps all the Na+ ti the outside and all the K+ to the inside. The pump requires energy in the form of ATP and is inhibited by metabolic poisons. Entry of Na+ is immediately followed by an increase in the permeability of the membrane to K+. These diffuse rapidly to the outside due to the concentration gradient. Being positively charged, the K+ reverses the polarity of the membrane making the outside positive.
