#1

Decreased arterial pH (metabolic acidosis) causes compensatory _____-ventilation with consequent decreased PCO2

#2

At _____ urine pH, the BH+ form of a weak base exists, thus increasing excretion

#3

The arterial blood profile seen in compensated respiratory alkalosis is: pH: _____[HCO3-]: decreasedPCO2: decreased

#4

The arterial blood profile seen in compensated metabolic alkalosis is: pH: _____[HCO3-]: increasedPCO2: increased

#5

Un-reabsorbed _____ (15%) serves as a urinary buffer for H+

#6

If the pH is reduced from 7.4 to 7.3 with the alveolar PO2 being constant at 100 mmHg, PCO2 would follow line _____.
