3) Say an individual has a respiratory disease that causes less CO2 to be exhaled with each breath.
a) Would this tend to cause acidosis or alkalosis of the extracellular fluid? Why?
b) Over the long term, how would the body compensate to bring pH back to normal, even though problems with CO2 exhalation remain?

A 34 year-old graduate student presents to the student health center with reddish, crusted lesions on his penis. He is treated with fungal cream. One week later he returns because the lesions are not getting better, and he is prescribed dicloxacillin (penicillin derivative) for a presumed staph infection. It’ been over 3 months since his initial visit, and the lesions on his penis have resolved. However, he now returns with a rash on his trunk and sees a different provider who knows the patient is a man who has sex with men.
3. The lesions are called __________ and are a “hallmark” of _________ stage of disease.

A. chancres / primary |
|
|
B. chancres/ secondary |

C. Boils / primary |
