Question completion status: QUESTION 5 A person who had ypeldiabetes may find themselves pids for energy instead of carbohydrates. The increased lpolysis leads to an elevated level of ketone acids in the blood arndin extreme situations this can cause a phenomenon known as which might you expect to observe in a patient ketoacidosis, where the blood becomes due to the presence these ketone acids from celular metabolism, of the following, with ketoacidosis assuming their body is trying to compensate and the excess acid. Othe patient would be breathing deeply and rapidly increased bicarbonate ion levels in the blood the patient would have a decreased respiratory rate and would be taking shallow breaths the PCO2 levels in the arterial blood would be high QUESTION 6 If a person is vomitting repeatedly this can cause the stomach to increase acid production. Along with this acid comes an increase in bicarbonate on production to buffer these acids. Based on this description, which of the following pH imbalanoes could result from repeated vomiting? respiratory alkalosis respiratory acidosis O metabolic acidosis QUESTION 7 Brenda donated blood today decreasing the volume of bloodin her cinculatory bood was removed from baroeceptorsinher carotid arteries and aorta detected a decrease in blood pressure. Which of the folowing mechanisms would restore her blood volume and thereby her blood pressure? systemic arteriole vasooonstriction
