In the lungs, the main factor in boosting the tendency of hemoglobin to bind with and hold oxygen is ___. a. temperature c. acidity (pH) b. the amount of O2 relative to the amount of CO2 in plasma c. acidity(pH) d. all are equally important
too much carbon dioxide in the blood causes it to become acidic. What is directly responsible for the drop in PH? Accumulation of CO2, accumulation of H+, accumulation of HCO3-.
The carbonic acid equilibrium is shown below. Exhalation of CO2 by the lungs causes this equilibrium to shift to the ______, which causes the pH of the blood to _______. H+ + HCO3- <=> H2CO3 <=> H2O + CO2 a) left; increase b) left; decrease c) right; decrease d) right; increase
Rebecca is found to have acidosis. She has elevated PCO2 and [HCO3-]. Which of the following is false? O her acidosis was caused from excess CO2 reacting with water to form carbonic acid O this is a metabolic acidosis kidney cells are using carbonic anhydrase to generate HCO3- for the blood O her blood pH is lower than normal
At a pH of 7.40, the carbonic acid ratio is ________.a. 35:1b. 4:1c. 20:1d. 3:1
Which of the following is characterized as metabolic alkalosis?a. increased pH, decreased pCO2, decreased HCO3–b. increased pH, increased pCO2, increased HCO3–c. decreased pH, decreased pCO2, decreasedHCO3–d. decreased pH, increased pCO2, increased HCO3–
When travelling high altitude, one of the problem is alkalosis of the blood. Remember the equation for acid balance: CO2 + H2O ⇌ H2CO3 ⇌ HCO3− + H+ If there is a low amount of CO2 outside, then greater CO2 than normal will diffuse out of the lungs. This will cause the blood to become more basic. To counteract the problem, a drug may be taken to both lower the blood pressure and help correct the pH. To do this, it blocks a symporter of HCO3- and Na+ in the proximal tubule of the kidney. Q: How would blocking transport of HCO3- help to lower the pH of the blood?
Which of the following can cause metabolic acidosis? heart failure vomiting the acid contents of the stomach prolonged diarrhea hypoventilation hyperventilation
Which statement BEST distinguishes metabolic acidosis from respiratory acidosis ? Metabolic acidosis occurs due to changes in blood glucose as opposed to changes in PO2 and PCO2 . Metabolic acidosis is a disturbance in blood pH caused by something other than an abnormal PCO2 . PCO 4s Metabolic acidosis occurs due to changes in PO2 as opposed to Metabolic acidosis occurs due to changes in bicarbonate as opposed to PCO2
Which of the following is incorrect regarding the bicarbonate buffer system: A B C D an increase in proton will lower blood pH carbonic anhydrase catalyzes the formation of carbonic acid from proton and bicarbonate ion the purpose of the buffer system is to resist changes in blood pH alkalosis is defined as a pH of > 7.45
A patient is hyperventilating. The "blowing off" of excessive carbon dioxide causes a decrease in blood H+ concentration. How can the carbonic acid buffering system function to correct this imbalance? CO2 + H2O → H2CO3 → H* + HCO3 O H2CO3 dissociates to form more H+ and raise pH. O HCO3- binds with H+ to form H2CO3 and raise pH. O H2CO3 dissociates to form more H+ and lower pH. O HCO3- binds with H+ to form H2CO3 and lower pH. O none of the above
In a person who suffers acidosis, the way to counteract the condition is by: Drink a large amont of water Slow Breathing Inhale a greater amount of CO2 than normal Stop breathing Fast and deep breathing
