vitamin B12 deficiency
Anemia due to folate (folic acid) deficiency
Anemia due to iron deficiency
Anemia of chronic disease
Hemolytic anemia Idiopathic
aplastic anemia Megaloblastic
anemia Pernicious anemia
Sickle cell anemia
Thalassemia

Acid Base Balance - lung and kidney compensation - ANS-The kidneys ha
main ways to maintain acid-base balance - their cells reabsorb bica
HCO3− from the urine back to the blood and they secrete hydrogen H+ io
the urine.

By adjusting the amounts reabsorbed and secreted, they balance the
