Final answer:

Hypoparathyroidism leads to low blood calcium levels, causing impaired muscle function and potential muscle hyperexcitability and tetany.


Explanation:

Hypoparathyroidism is characterized by decreased secretion of parathyroid hormone (PTH), resulting in extremely low levels of blood calcium. This leads to impaired muscle function, potentially causing muscle hyperexcitability and tetany (sustained muscle contraction).
