Situation: Serum calcium level starts to fall below normal amount; Body's response: The body stimulates the release of parathyroid hormone, a hormone that stimulate bone destruction and release of calcium in the blood. Once the serum calcium level falls within normal values, the body stops the release of parathyroid hormone to stop bone destroying cells from destroying bones and releasing calcium in the blood.
