Chapter 25.6, Problem 42LO
Summary Introduction

To define: Metabolic acidosis and alkalosis, identify some of the causes of this type of acid-base disturbance, and explain how each occurs.

Concept introduction: Acid-base balance is the homeostatic maintenance of the extracellular fluid’s pH. The maintenance of optimum pH is essential for normal physiological functioning of the body. If there is any disturbance in the acid-base balance, it leads to acidosis and alkalosis. Acidosis occurs when the concentration of hydrogen ions increases or serum pH decreases. Alkalosis occurs when the concentration of hydrogen ions decreases or serum pH increases.

1:42 PM ១ 99% Apart from food, plants need other nutrients like water and minerals. Nitrogen, a mineral, is an important part of all living cells. All organisms need nitrogen in order to grow and repair. Although nitrogen exists in its elemental form in the atmosphere, it cannot be directly used by plants. 7 Where else can plants obtain their nitrogen from? Plants make their own nitrogen. B Plants get it from animals. Plants get it from the soil. D Plants have special structures to break down atmospheric nitrogen. v3.7.63.140.4 | 6763e9417a3dbb80fa0f87b2 | Dec 19, 2024 | 3:07 PM | 84126 | en_8
