Solution

The correct option is B Decreased blood calcium level
Parathyroid hormone is mainly controlled by the negative feedback of calcium levels in the blood to the parathyroid glands. Low calcium levels in the blood stimulate the parathyroid hormone secretion, whereas high calcium levels in the blood prevent the release of parathyroid hormone.
