Question
Patients with myasthenia gravis have a deficiency of ACh receptors on their skeletal muscles and have weak muscle function as a result.

Select 3 hormones and describe their roles in regulating cellular functions that influence bone matrix. Include what would happen to the bones if there was a deficiency or hypersecretion of the hormone.Explanation / Answer
