Q

What are 5 examples of increase in solute reabsorption increases osmotic gradient for water reabsorption?

A

ADH  increases water reabsorption

Q

What are the 3 lines of defense against acid-base disturbances.

A

Buffering of hydrogen ions

Respiratory compensation

Renal compensation

17
Q

True or False: Renal compensation is the quickest defense against changes in pH.

A

False, buffering

18
Q

What is the most important ECF buffer?

A

Bicarbonate

19
Q

What are the two types of IFC buffers?

A

Proteins and phosphates

20
Q

True or False: Respiratory compensation is the second line of defense?

A

True. takes minutes to have effect

21
Q

True or False: Increased ventilation = increase in CO2 and decreased ventilation = decrease in CO2.

A

False, vice versa

22
Q

What is the negative feedback loop for decrease in plasma pH?

A

decrease in plasma pH = detect by peripheral chemoreceptors

then increase in ventilation = decrease in plasma PCO2

leads to increase in plasma pH

23
Q

What is the third line of defense?

A

Renal compensation

24
Q

True or False: Renal compensation takes hours to days.

A

True

25
Q

How does renal compensation protect against acid-base disturbances

A

Regulates excretion of hydrogen ions and bicarbonate in urine

Regulates synthesis of new bicarbonate in renal tubules

26
Q

What are the effects of increased acidity on renal compensation?

A

Increased secretion of hydrogen ions

Increased reabsorption of bicarbonate

Increased synthesis of new bicarbonate

27
Q

True or False: In the proximal tubule, bicarbonate reabsorption coupled to hydrogen ion secretion

A

True

28
Q

What are the 3 actions in the proximal tubule procedure in regards to mechanisms against acid-base disturbances?

A

Under normal conditions, 80-90% of filtered bicarbonate is reabsorbed

Hydrogen ions are secreted

Sodium is reabsorbed

29
Q

True or False: In the distal tubule and collecting duct, secretion of hydrogen ions coupled to synthesis of new bicarbonate ions occurs.

A

True

30
Q

What are the 2 actions in the distal tubule and collecting duct procedure in regards to mechanisms against acid-base disturbances?

A

Newly formed bicarbonate ions to the plasma

Hydrogen ions secreted into the tubular fluid

31
Q

What two ways is glutamine used in renal compensation?

A

Regulation of hydrogen ion secretion, bicarbonate reabsorption, and bicarbonate synthesis by kidneys is usually sufficient

During severe acidosis

32
Q

What are the 2 actions of the glutamine metabolism procedure in regards to mechanisms against acid-base disturbances?

A

New bicarbonate ion is added to the blood

Hydrogen ion is secreted in the form of ammonium

33
Q

If rhe Henderson- Hasselbalch equation is [HCO3–]/[CO2] < 20:1 then its ______ or when its [HCO3–]/[CO2] > 20:1 then its ______.

A

Acidosis, alkalosis

34
Q

Respiratory acidosis is caused by ______ whereas respiratory alkalosis is caused by ______.

A

Hypoventilation, (lung diseases) hyperventilation (fever, anxiety)

35
Q

What are 4 examples of metabolic acidosis?

A

Example: diarrhea (loss of bicarbonate), diabetes mellitus (keto acids), strenuous exercise (increases lactic acid), renal failure

36
Q

What effect does metabolic acidosis have?

A

Respiratory compensation
Increased ventilation  decreased CO2
Converts HCO3– and H+ to produce CO2  decreasing free H in blood

Renal compensation
Increased H+ secretion
Increased HCO3– reabsorption
Increased synthesis of new bicarbonate

A

Examples: vomiting (loss of gastric contents), ingestion of alkaline drugs (antacids)

Renal compensation
Decreased H+ secretion
Decreased HCO3– reabsorption
Decreased synthesis of new bicarbonate

39
