Mark the following statements as true or false. If a statement is false, correct it to make a true statement.
a. Bone resorption is triggered by pressure placed on the bone.
b. Bone deposition is triggered by tension placed on the bone.
c. The greater the load the bone must carry, the more bone that is resorbed by osteoclasts.
d. Calcitonin is released in response to an elevated calcium ion concentration in the blood.
e. Parathyroid hormone increases the blood calcium ion concentration by increasing the activity of osteoblasts.
f. Vitamin D is required for calcium ion absorption from the intestines and retention in the kidneys.
