Answer: The Parathyroid gland
Explanation:
The Parathyroid gland secretes "Parathormone", an hormone that exerts
- direct influence on the bone by INCREASING the release of bone calcium ion (Ca2+) into the blood
- affects the kidney by stimulating the renal tubules to eliminate EXCESS calcium in the urine.
Thus, the calcium balance of the body depends on the secretion of the Parathyroid gland
First, preexisting rocks must weather/erode, forming the sediment that will eventually form the sedimentary rock. Then, that sediment must settle someplace, and over a long period of time, pressure begins to build. This causes the sediments to become compacted. After a long period of time (and a lot of pressure), the sediments cement together and form a sedimentary rock. In a nutshell, sedimentary rocks form through compaction, cementation, and eventually... lithification.
