patient with parathyroid deficiency 10 days after inadvertent damage to the parathyroid glands during thyroid surgery would probably have A. a low plasma calcium level, increased membrane permeability to sodium, increased muscular excitability, and muscle spasms or twitching. B. a high plasma calcium level, decreased membrane permeability to sodium, and bone demineralization
