  Side A   Side B
1
What is the principal regulator of calcium balance?
 
PTH (Parathyroid Hormone)
2
Parathyroid Hormone (PTH) maintains plasma Ca by stimulating reabsorption in the _________
 
Distal tubule
3
T or F: Kidney is output site for Ca
 
True
4
Input site for calcium into body?
 
GI
5
What stimulates calcium absorption into the GI?
 
calcitrol
6
What stimulates the synthesis of calcitrol aka 125 dihydroxy vitamin k?
 
PTH parathryoid hormone
7
How does PTH (secreted from parathyroid) regulate ca?
 
reabsorption in kidney and reduction in urine; absorption in GI; bone resorption
8
What regulates plasma phosphate?
 
parathyroid hormone (PTH)...calcium too
9
Where is phosphate filtered?
 
glomerulous
10
Where is phosphate reabsorbed?
 
PT and DT
11
Are phosphate and calcium secreted in the tubules?
 
no
12
Does PTH inhibit or stimulate pho4 absorption in pt?
 
inhibit
13
When PTH increases, what happens to Ca reabsorption? increases. PO4 reabsorption?
 
calcium increases; pho4 decreases
14
phospate reabsorption is most dependent on?
 
what's happening with calcium
15
Where is K filtered?
 
glomerulus
