The answer is Parathyroid Hormone (PTH). Steroids reduce calcium levels in the blood. This results in activation of the parathyroid hormone that is essential in the metabolism of calcium in the blood. PTH induces reabsorption of calcium from bones to restore homeostasis Ca2+ levels in the blood hence causing osteoporosis. Osteoporosis causes an increased risk of bone fractures.

Which characteristic do protozoans Foraminiferans (Phylum Sarcodines) and coccolithophores (Phylum Haptophyta) have in common?
shtirl [24]

The common characteristic of those two organisms is hard spherical shells (exoskeleton).

Foraminiferans are single cell marine eukaryotes divided into granular endoplasm and transparent ectoplasm. Foraminiferans are enveloped with tests, hard shells, usually composed of calcium carbonate (sometimes from organic compounds or silica).

Coccolithophore is a unicellular, eukaryotic alga with special calcium carbonate plates (or scales) of uncertain function (coccoliths). Each unicellular alga is enclosed in its own collection of coccoliths, the which make up its exoskeleton- coccosphere.
