Solution

The correct option is D Both (a) and (b)
Ca2+ level in the body is controlled by both thyroid gland and parathyroid gland. Thyroid gland secretes a hormone, thyrocalcitonin which checks the excess blood calcium levels. Parathyroid gland secretes hormone called parathyroid hormone or parathormone which increased the Ca2+ levels in the blood.
