Answer:
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.
Answer:

2. true
3. true
Explanation:
1. Annuals are the plants that complete their life cycle in one season or one year. These are the herbaceous plants that grow, flower and die in one season. Examples of annuals are geranium, marigold, etc.
2. In a flower, the whorl of petals is called corolla while the whorl of the sepal is known as calyx. In flowers, calyx and corolla together make perianth. The calyx is outer to corolla in a perianth.
3. The fruit is a matured and ripened ovary that provides protection to the seeds present in it. Fruits are formed after fertilization and may contain one or more seeds. Tomatoes are the simple berry fruits while cucumber is pepo, the modified berries. Broccoli is the flower head while celery is the edible leaf.
Answer:
C. All plankton are closely related to plants.
Explanation:
Plankton are organisms found in water that exist in a drifting state. They are too small or weak to swim on their own, so they let the current or tide carry them. They are usually microscopic but include larger species as well, such as some crustaceans and jellyfish.
Phytoplankton are autothrophic plankton. This means that they produce their own food. They are primary producers and closely related to plants.
Zooplankton are heterotrophic plankton, which means that they feed on other organisms. They are animals and aren't closely related to plants.
Nekton are organisms found in water that swim actively.
Based on this information, we can conclude that statement C is the only incorrect statement.
An artificial leaf could replicate photosynthesis but instead it would also be artificial which then produces hydrogen fuel that will be energy efficient and carbon neutral. hope this helps.
