Expert Solution

1. )

A compensatory respiratory acidosis caused by a decrease in the respiratory rate we can expect in a patient with metabolic alkalosis.

Answer - A.) A compensatory respiratory acidosis caused by a decrease in respiratory rate.

Blood pH increases In metabolic alkalosis due to the excess level of HCO3 ions in the blood. In this case, the body tries to decrease the pH level by increasing pCO2 in blood.
To start the compensate process body decreases the respiratory rate which results in carbon dioxide retention in the lungs, which helps to increses blood pCO2 level.

2.

Bicarbonate is reabsorbed into the epithelial cells of the proximal convoluted tubule as Carbon dioxide (CO2)

Answer - A. CO2

In renal tubules Bicarbonate form carbonic acid(H2CO3) by reacting with H+ ions, Then again carbonic acid(H2CO3) broken due to carbonic anhydrase (an enzyme) to Carbon dioxide (CO2) and Water. Carbon dioxide (CO2) reabsorbed into the epithelial cells of the proximal convoluted tubule which again forms carbonic acid(H2CO3) by mixing with water.

4.

Urine volume is not an indicator of GFR is false regarding the Glomerular filtration rate.

Answer - C. Urine vol. is not an indicator of GFR

Urine volume is an indicator of GFR, Changes in glomerular filtration rate can influence the urine output.
