Explanation:

Thermoregulation is the process whereby an organism maintain its internal temperature despite changes in External temperature. The nervous system of human body is responsible for thermo regulation.

The centsl nervous system consist of brain and spinal cord while the peripheral nervous system consist of nerves. A part of the brain (central nervous system)called hypothalamus controls thermo regulation.

c. accidental removal of the parathyroid glands during surgery

Explanation:

Parathyroid gland is found closely situated at the back of the thyroid gland in the human neck region. Regulation of serum calcium levels in the body is a major function of the parathyroid gland through the secretion of a hormone called parathyroid hormone or parathormone.

During the surgery conducted to remove the thyroid gland, it is very likely that the parathyroid glands were accidentally damaged or removed. This most likely led to the non--secretion of parathormone, which is responsible for secretion of calcium in the body, when calcium levels drop.
