Which systems maintain the blood pH?
Give this one a try later!
The respiratory system, kidneys, and the blood buffer system. While the
respiratory system and kidneys are very important at maintaining blood pH,
the blood buffer systems works the quickest to maintain normal pH.
,What uses ion channels? give an example

facilitated diffusion: sodium potassium pump (na+/ K+ pump)
What role is aldosterone in the body?
Give this one a try later!
It is a hormone that helps to regulate the kidneys. It causes excretion of
potassium from the distal tubules
Respiratory alkalosis is most commonly caused by

hyperventilation, anxiety and panic attacks
Vomiting can also cause this: losing too much acid
How will you treat respiratory alkalosis?

, breathe in a paper bag
Or treat the cause: if vomiting then most likely will need electrolytes.
What does compensated in respiratory acidosis mean?
Give this one a try later!
In compensated respiratory acidosis, the pH tends to range between 7.35
and 7.39 - still acidic, But in the normal pH range. When you look at the
PaCO2, you notice that it is high (acidic), but. The HCO3 is also high,
indicating that the body has compensated and normalized the low pH.
Key characteristics of epithelial tissue?

Cellular adaptation: Hypertrophy

increase in cell size, due to increased workload, increased hormone

hypertension

Metabolic alkalosis (pH is high-alkalosis), (HCO3 high-metabolic).
Hydrogen ions may be lost through the kidneys or the GI tract. Vomiting or
nasogastric (NG) suction generates metabolic alkalosis by the loss of
gastric secretions, which are rich in hydrochloric acid (HCl). Whenever a
hydrogen ion is excreted, a bicarbonate ion is gained in the extracellular
space.
A low positive predictive value would mean what in terms of specificity and
sensitivity?

the test would have low sensitivity because the proportion of people who
test positive and actually get a positive test would be low.
