Tetany-

Titany is disease that occurs due to decreased ionized fraction of serum calcium which may be due to-
a) An increase in the PH of blood
b) Poor absorption of calcium from the intestine
c) Decreased dietary intake of calcium
d) Increased renal excretion of calcium as in nephritis
e) Increased retention of phosphorous as in renal tubular disease
