Post-lab Quiz ResultsYou scored 100% by answering 4 out of 4 questions correctly.

1. Rebreathing simulatesYou correctly answered: a. hypoventilation and respiratory acidosis.

2. Hypoventilation results in You correctly answered: c. an accumulation of carbon dioxide in the blood.

3. The renal system can compensate for respiratory acidosis byYou correctly answered: b. excreting H+ and retaining bicarbonate ion.

4. Respiratory acidosis can be caused by all of the following exceptYou correctly answered: d. an anxiety attack.

Review Sheet Results1. Describe what happened to the pH and the carbon dioxide levels during rebreathing. How well did the results comparewith your prediction?Your answer:pH decreased and P co2 increased as predicted.

2. Describe some possible causes of respiratory acidosis.Your answer:Lung diseases, obstructed airway.

3. Explain how the renal system would compensate for respiratory acidosis.Your answer:Renal system will excrete hydrogen ion to increase pH.
