slide 32 and 33

Question 1

acidosis->

Answer 1

hyperventilation

Question 2

Prolonged hyperventilation, by decreasing blood H+ excessively, may produce

Answer 2

alkalosis

Question 3

Alkalosis causes hypoventilation, which tends to correct alkalosis by

Answer 3

increasing blood CO2 and therefore blood H2CO3 and H+

Question 4

Prolonged hypoventilation, by eliminating too little CO2, causes an increase in blood H2CO3 and

Answer 4

consequently in blood H+, thereby possibly producing acidosis
