Answer:
Calcitonin
Explanation:
- Calcitonin is the non iodized hormone secreted by parafollicular cells of thyroid.
- Calcitonin is a hormone produced and released by the thyroid gland that helps to regulate calcium levels in your blood by lowering them.
- Calcitonin counteracts the effects of the parathyroid hormone, a hormone that raises calcium levels in the blood.
- Calcitonin lowers calcium and phosphorus levels in the blood.
- It accomplishes this by reducing the activity of osteoclasts, which are bone-forming cells. As these cells 'clean' the bone, calcium is released.
