Question

3) Discuss daily movement of calcium throughout the body (from dietary absorption through bone deposition or renal excretion). How does daily phosphate movement compare?

Answer 1

Answer:-

Both Ca2+ and phosphorus (as "phosphate" or Pi/HPO4-2) utilize passive diffusion and saturable/facilitated absorption during intestinal uptake.2, 3, 9, 11 In general, Ca2+ uptake is passive (or paracellular) while Pi uptake is saturable (between cells or transcellular).2 Although encouraged (dynamic/transcellular) Ca2+ retention will increment with diminished Ca2+ consumption, encouraged take-up would dependably appear to prevail in the Pi system.2 It ought to be noted, nonetheless, that conflicting suppositions exist on the degree of uninvolved dissemination that happens amid intestinal Pi take-up.
