I think only I and II are correct, III seems wrong.

I remember it being secreted during high calcium meals, makes sense!

Wait, is calcitonin really a vitamin D derivative? That sounds off.

I thought calcitonin was only about lowering calcium levels.

I’m really unsure about all of this; I thought calcitonin was mainly about calcium regulation, but I can’t recall if it’s stimulated by high calcium meals.

I practiced a similar question about calcitonin and its functions, and I feel like it’s not a vitamin D derivative, so I might lean towards option C.

I think statement II sounds right because calcitonin does help prevent hypercalcemia, but I’m confused about the details of how it works.

I remember that calcitonin is involved in lowering calcium levels, but I’m not sure about its secretion during feeding.

I'm not entirely sure about this one. I'll make my best guess, but I may need to come back to it if I have time at the end.

Okay, I've got this. The answer is B - setting the scope to ALL when starting the child playbook. That way, the child can access all the data and results from the parent. Easy peasy!

I'm leaning towards the REST API, but I want to double-check the documentation to make sure that's the right choice. Don't want to risk getting this one wrong.

I think the corrosion rates actually increase with temperature, but I'm not entirely sure if it would continue to rise until the water evaporates.

This looks like a tricky one. I'll need to carefully review the information provided in the images and question to determine the right configuration update and alert.
