Textbook Question
Chapter 26, Problem 20RQ
The control of blood pH by the kidneys during acidosis involves (a) the secretion of hydrogen ions and reabsorption of bicarbonate ions from the tubular fluid, (b) a decrease in the amount of water reabsorbed, (c) hydrogen ion reabsorption and bicarbonate ion loss, (d) potassium ion secretion.

Explain the relationship of the following to renal secretion and excretion of hydrogen ions: (a) plasma carbon dioxide levels, (b) phosphate, and (c) sodium bicarbonate reabsorption.
drugs known as potassium-sparing diuretics work by blocking the effects of aldosterone on the kidney. what effect would these drugs have on the amount of urine produced, on the blood pressure, and on potassium ion concentration in the blood? could these drugs have a negative impact on the acid-base balance of the body? explain.
Please help me with these questions, more than one answer may be correct for each:1) Which of the following statements are true about the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone axis?
A)
Angiotensin II stimulates production of aldosterone, which increases sodium reabsorption
B)
Renin converts angiotensinogen to angotensin I
C)
Angiotensin II stimulates production of vasopressin, which increases aquaporins in the collecting duct
D)
Vasopressin decreases thirst
E)
Renin lowers GFR
2) The purpose of excretion is to
A)
maintain internal pH
B)
remove harmful substances
C)
maintain plasma volume
D)
maintain osmotic balance
E)
maintain internal solute concentration
