Which of the following are not the effects of Parathyroid hormone? (a) Stimulates the process of bone resorption (b) Decreases Ca2+Ca^{2+} level in blood (c) Reabsorption of Ca2+Ca^{2+} by renal tubules (d) Decreases the absorption of Ca2+Ca^{2+} from digested food (e) Increases metabolism of carbohydrates. Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

A

(a), (c) and (e) only

B

(b), (d) and (e) only

C

(a) and (c) only

D

(b), (c) and (d) only

Step-by-Step Solution

Parathyroid hormone (PTH) is hypercalcemic, meaning it increases Ca2+Ca^{2+} levels in the blood. It stimulates bone resorption (a), increases Ca2+Ca^{2+} reabsorption by renal tubules (c), and increases Ca2+Ca^{2+} absorption from digested food. Therefore, (b), (d), and (e) are not effects of PTH.
