Diabetic patients may experience elevated levels of ketogenesis which, in turn, leadsto acidosis. The acidosis will trigger hyperventilation. Why?The patient is able to take in a greater amount of oxygen with hyperventilation.Hyperventilation allows increased expiration of carbon dioxide and water.Hyperventilation allows increased expiration of the ketone bodies.The increased contractions of respiratory muscles used during hyperventilation.decreases the amount of acid produced in the body.Hyperventilation has no effect on acid-base homeostasis and is only used as aclinical sign for diagnosis.

This buffer is responsible for maintaining the pH of blood plasma. Carbonic acid (H2CO3) is the…

Diabetic ketoacidosis is characterized by an increased level of ketone bodies, which causes metabolic acidosis. A patient in diabetic ketoacidosis will have an altered rate of ventilation. Will the patient be hyperventilating or hypoventilating? How will a change in the rate and depth of ventilation compensate for an acidosis that is metabolic in nature?
Which of the following statements about the ketone bodies is/are TRUE? Produced during starvation and in diabetic patients Excess is transformed to acetone or hydroxybutyrate. Extreme amount of ketone bodies may cause ketosis in diabetics. Occurs during a high-lipid and low-protein diet.
Metabolic ketoacidosis is a common problem with diabetics, which is caused by which of the following? Excessive oxidation of fatty acids, leading to an accumulation of ketone bodies in the blood. Excessive oxidation of glucose, leading to an accumulation of ketone bodies in the blood. Excessive oxidation of proteins, leading to an accumulation of ammonia in the blood. Hyperglycemia.
The Respiratory Exchange Ratio associated with carbohydrate metabolism indicates that Question options: One molecules of carbon dioxide is produced, for every oxygen consumed Two molecules of oxygen are consumed, for every carbon dioxide produced Four molecules of oxygen are consumed, for every three carbon dioxides produced. One molecules of oxygen is produced, for every carbon dioxide consumed.
Which statement about steroids is TRUE? Cytochrome P450 monooxygenase introduces oxygen atoms into calcitriol. Cytochrome c oxidase requires cholesterol for full activity. All classes of steroid hormones have a different number of carbon atoms. Cholesterol is excreted from the organism only in the form of bile salts. All steroids are usually hydrophilic, so they can be transported without the help of lipoprotein particles.
During times of prolonged fasting, ketone bodies such as ß-hydroxybutyrate build up in plasma. As a result, this causes a decrease in pH. This condition is called
