Abstract
In the biological sciences, the mathematical approach to studying feedback mechanisms has not been common despite the abundance of such mechanisms in those systems. We try to analyze the calcium homeostatic mechanism in this context. In addition to a general modeling of this mechanism, the paper also focuses on parturient paresis, a common disease associated with the onset of parturition in dairy cows, due to a large increased demand for calcium
