Question

Which of the following would create an increased number of hydrogen ions in the erythrocyte? a. A decrease in chloride ions entering the erythrocyte. b. An increased number of chloride ions entering the erythrocyte. A person can inhale when they expand their thoracic cavity. To expand their thoracic cavity, they must___their diaphragm muscle and ____ their ribs. a. lower: lower b. lower: raise c. raise: lower d. raise: raise In order to passively inhale, the thoracic pressure needs to be ____. a. 2 mmHg higher than atmospheric pressure b. 2 mmHg lower than atmospheric pressure c. 760 mmHg d. The answer to this depends on what the atmospheric pressure is. Which of the following is true in reference to hyperventilation? a. The patient is exhaling too much carbon dioxide and therefore the blood pH will rise. b. The patient is exhaling too much carbon dioxide and therefore the blood pH will drop. c. The patient is inhaling too much oxygen and therefore the blood pH will rise. d. The patient is inhaling too much oxygen and therefore the blood pH will drop. Which of the following would cause a patient to begin to breathe faster? a. A drop in blood pH b. A rise in blood pH

Explanation / Answer

1. Well due to the increase in the number of chloride iins entering the erythrocytes would create an icreased number of the hydrogen ions in the erythrocytes.

Because when Chloe ode ins increase then the bocarbonate ions will leave the cell and only a few bicarbonates will be available to buffer the hydrogen ions as a result of which the pH of the blood decreases with increase in hydrogen ions.

Hence option b is correct.

2. A person can inhale when they expand their thoracic cacity. To expand their thoracic cavity they must lower their diaphragm muscles and raise their ribs. This is the phenomenon of inspiration.

Hence option b is correct.

3. In order to passively inhale, the thoracic pressure needs to be generally less than the atomospheric pressure and this generally depends on what the atomospheric pressure is.

Hence option D is correct.

5. When the person is exhaling too much carbon dioxide then the blood pH will ultimately increase. This is known as respiratory alkalosis.

hence option A is correct.

6. When the blood ph Rises then the breating Rate become faster by exhaling more than we inhale we're hyperventilated.

hence option b is correct.
