Co2 and bicarb buffer

Question 5

Increases bicarb

Answer 5

Alkalosis

Question 6

Alkalosis

Answer 6

H out

K in

K down

Hypo k

Calcium down

Question 7

Opposite Na and Cl then acid base problem

Both na and k low then Diuretics

Opposite na and k then Cushing or Addison (adrenocortical)

Question 8

Parathyroid

Answer 8

K and calcium from bone

Calcium re absorption

Potassium secretion

Acidosis

Answer 9

Decreased H
Increased k
Increased calcium
