Hello!!! The endocrine gland that is probably malfunctioning if a person has a high metabolic rate is the parathyroid. If a person's parathyroids are responding properly to a drop in blood calcium, which of the following should result? Less calcium is placed in the urine by the kidneys.

Hope this helped!!!
