Calcitonin is the other major hormone involved with calcium regulation. Parathyroid hormone (PTH), produced by the parathyroid gland, increases the level of calcium in the blo â¦ od. It usually accomplishes this by increasing the resorption rate (taking back) from bone.Calcitonin does the exact opposite and reduces calcium in the blood.arathyroid hormone (PTH) and calcitonin regulate blood calcium levels. PTH increases the calcium concentration in the blood, and calcitonin decreases it. 2 people found this useful. Edit.
The Earth bulges slightly at the Equator; the average diameter of the Earth is 12,750 kilometres (7,922 mi), but the diameter at the Equator is about 43 kilometres (27 mi) greater than at the poles.
Since the Earth is not a perfect sphere, there are three numbers to know when answering questions about the diameter of Earth. The rotation of the planet has slightly flattened it out, so it has a larger diameter at the equator than at the poles. The equatorial diameter of Earth is 12,756 km, its polar diameter is 12,713 km, and its average diameter, which is referred to in common usage, is 12,742 km.
