Question

Calcium present in body fluids performs all of the following roles except:

A. maintaining high blood pressure
B. facilitating muscle contraction
C. regulating the transport of ions across cell membranes
D. participating in blood clotting
E. activating cellular enzymes

Answer 1

The answer is A. maintaining high blood pressure.

Step-by-step explanation:

There is usually 1% of our total calcium in the body present in the body fluids. The calcium in the fluids plays important roles for a number of functions, including transmission of nerve impulses (C. ions transportation), muscle contraction (B.), blood clotting (D.), stability of cell membranes (C.), and cell metabolism (E. activate enzymes).

Therefore, A should be the most suitable for the answer.
