7. Deficiency of this element is the main cause of goiter and thyroid nodules
9. High levels of PTH cause this disorder. A common complication of this disorder is hypercalcemia
10. this part of the endocrine system is often referred to as the "master gland" due to how many hormones it secretes
11. PTH is secreted when the serum level of this electrolyte drops
13. this is a rare life threatening form of hypothyroidism where the person goes into a coma
