Answer:
Thyrocalcitonin or TCT
Explanation:
Thyrocalcitonin or TCT is a non-iodinated calcium lowering hormone. It is originating from the parafollicular cells or C cells (C for calcium).
The thyroid gland consists of follicles of cuboidal epithelial cells. These cuboidal cells have a nucleus at the base. These are principal cells responsible for the synthesis of thyroid hormones.
In between these follicular cells, other high cuboidal cells are present, known as parafollicular cells / C cells. These cells synthesise the hormone TCT. When there is high levels of calcium ions in the serum, TCT will release. This lowers the high level of calcium ions in the blood and plasma to normal level. This is done due to the deposition of calcium in the bone.
Cells are the most simple level of organization, as tissues contain cells, organs contain tissues and systems contain organs, so R would be your answer.
The surface area to volume ratio of the cell decreases.
This decrease is due to the fact that the volume of the cell increases at a greater rate than the surface surrounding the cell, the cell membrane, increases. This change is also visible when we are blowing up a balloon.
When considering the cell division, the ratio remains roughly the same. It is advantageous for the cell to preserve its surface area to volume ratio, since a higher ratio means that substances are able to diffuse into and out of the cell at a fairly higher rate.
