Question

Hyper secretion of Parathyroid hormone result in

• A. Stronger bones due to increased incorporation of calcium in them
• B. Deposition of calcium in various skeletal structure
• C. No effect on the constitution of bones
• D. Weaker bones due to increased removal of calcium from them

Answer 1

The correct option is D Weaker bones due to increased removal of calcium from them

Hypersecretion of parathyroid hormone results in high level of calcium in the blood (hypercalcemia) due to more release of calcium ions from the blood. Due to this, there is little calcium in bones and bones become weaker.

So, the correct option is 'Weaker bones due to increased removal of calcium from them'.
