Froggy Jumps Breath and Balance QuizOnline version Respiratory and metabolic acid-base by Lakshmi T 1 What happens to PaCO2 and pH in respiratory acidosis? a PaCO2 decreases; pH increases b PaCO2 increases; pH decreases c PaCO2 increases; pH increases 2 In respiratory alkalosis, which change occurs to PaCO2 and pH? a PaCO2 increases; pH increases b PaCO2 increases; pH decreases c PaCO2 decreases; pH increases 3 Which compensatory mechanism mainly corrects metabolic acidosis? a Respiratory rate increase (acute) b Renal HCO3- retention (metabolic compensation) c Hyperventilation as primary response 4 Which condition causes a primary metabolic acidosis? a High HCO3- with increased pH b Normal HCO3- with normal pH c Low HCO3- with decreased pH 5 What is the expected PaCO2 change in metabolic acidosis as compensation continues? a PaCO2 increases due to hypoventilation b PaCO2 decreases via hyperventilation c PaCO2 remains unchanged 6 In respiratory alkalosis, what happens to alveolar ventilation? a Increased ventilation b Decreased ventilation c No change in ventilation 7 What is a key renal compensatory response to metabolic alkalosis? a Increased urine chloride only b Renal HCO3- excretion with H+ retention c Renal HCO3- retention 8 Which acid-base disorder features high PaCO2 and low pH with hypoventilation? a Respiratory alkalosis b Metabolic acidosis c Respiratory acidosis 9 Which change accompanies metabolic alkalosis? a Normal HCO3- with normal pH b Low HCO3- with low pH c Elevated HCO3- with high pH 10 During metabolic acidosis, the body’s immediate respiratory response is? a Hypoventilation to retain CO2 b No respiratory change c Hyperventilation to blow off CO2 11 If PaO2 is low in a primary respiratory disorder, what is a likely consequence? a PaO2 rises in all cases b Impaired oxygen delivery; may worsen compensation c PaO2 unchanged by acid-base status 12 Which statement about compensatory mechanisms is true? a Renal compensation precedes respiratory changes b Respiratory and renal systems compensate in opposite directions c Only respiratory compensation occurs 13 Which disorder can cause a compensatory metabolic alkalosis? a Acute respiratory failure b Chronic vomiting c Sepsis with lactic acidosis 14 What is the effect of metabolic acidosis on PaO2? a PaO2 always increases b PaO2 may be normal or decreased c PaO2 always remains normal 15 In respiratory acidosis, which ion may increase to compensate in the kidneys? a Chloride (Cl-) b Sodium (Na+) c Bicarbonate (HCO3-) 16 Which condition best illustrates metabolic alkalosis? a Pulmonary edema b Loss of gastric acid (vomiting) c Diabetic ketoacidosis 17 If someone has respiratory alkalosis, which gas change is likely? a High PaCO2 b Low PaCO2 c High HCO3- 18 Which symptom aligns with metabolic compensation for respiratory acidosis? a Immediate respiratory alkalosis b Increased renal bicarbonate retention c Decreased HCO3- reabsorption 19 Which acid-base disorder would show a low pH and low PaCO2? a Metabolic acidosis with respiratory compensation? (trick) b Respiratory alkalosis c Metabolic alkalosis
