The major buffer in the extracellular fluid is

bicarbonate

Which acid are kidneys unable to excrete

carbonic

Renal compensation for respiratory acidosis is evidence by

elevated bicarbonate ion concentration

The patient who requires the most careful monitoring for development of metabolic acidosis is a patient who

has had diarrhea for over week

Early manifestations of developing metabolic acidosis include

headache

Respiratory alkalosis is caused by

hyperventilation

Metabolic alkalosis is often accompanied by

hypokalemia

Respiratory acidosis may be caused by

hypoventilation

in the normal range

Respiratory acidosis is associated with

increased carbonic acid

Uncompensated metabolic alkalosis would result in

increased pH, increased HCO3-
