| 11. | Respiratory alkalosis may also be present.
|
| 12. | If these homeostats are compromised, then a respiratory acidosis, or a respiratory alkalosis will occur.
|
| 13. | Purple-K is normally non-toxic, but ingestion of large amount can cause alkalosis.
|
| 14. | An increase in blood pH due to hyperventilation is called respiratory alkalosis ( Fig . 11 ).
|
| 15. | This increases carbon dioxide ( CO 2 ) flow out of the body and causes respiratory alkalosis.
|
| 16. | One cause of this can be increased renin production due to low blood potassium, and metabolic alkalosis.
|
| 17. | If it occurs together with metabolic alkalosis ( decreased blood acidity ) it is often due to vomiting.
|
| 18. | There are four basic processes : metabolic acidosis, respiratory acidosis, metabolic alkalosis, and respiratory alkalosis.
|
| 19. | There are four basic processes : metabolic acidosis, respiratory acidosis, metabolic alkalosis, and respiratory alkalosis.
|
| 20. | Adding extra acid does in fact disrupt that ( as does vomiting, see : Metabolic alkalosis ).
