    The document summarizes a lab report on the renal responses to respiratory acidosis and alkalosis. It includes pre-lab and post-lab quiz results, experiment predictions and results. The key findings are: 1) Lowering PCO2 resulted in decreased [H+] and elevated [HCO3-] in urine, simulating respiratory alkalosis. 2) Raising PCO2 resulted in elevated [H+] and decreased [HCO3-] in urine, simulating respiratory acidosis. 3) The kidney can partially but not fully compensate for changes in blood pH caused by respiratory acidosis and alkalosis.

    Experiment Results
    Predict Question:
    Predict Question 1: What effect do you think lowering the PCO2 will have on [H+ ] and [HCO3- ] in the urine?
    Your answer : d. [H+ ] will decrease and [HCO3- ] will increase.

    Predict Question 2: What effect do you think raising the PCO2 will have on [H+ ] and [HCO3- ] in the urine?
    Your answer : c. [H+ ] will increase and [HCO3- ] will decrease.

    Stop & Think Questions:


    The condition you just simulated is
    You correctly answered: b. respiratory alkalosis caused by hyperventilation.

    Can the renal system fully compensate for acidosis or alkalosis?

    PCO2 Blood pH [H+] in Urine [HCO3-] in Urine


    40 7.38 normal normal
    30 7.58 decreased elevated

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

    1. When adjusting the controls, what happens to the blood pH when you lower the PCO2?
    You correctly answered: a. The pH increases.

    2. In uncompensated respiratory alkalosis, the


    You correctly answered: b. carbon dioxide levels of the blood are low.

    3. What type of breathing results in acidosis?


    You correctly answered: d. hypoventilation and rebreathing

    4. With renal compensation for respiratory acidosis, the pH of the urine


    You correctly answered: b. decreased because [H+ ] increased.

    Review Sheet Results
    1. Describe what happened to the concentration of ions in the urine when the PCO2 was lowered. How well did the results
    compare with your prediction?
    Your answer:
    - La concentración de iones hidrógeno H+ disminuyó, mientras que, la concentración de iones bicarbonato aumentó.
    - La respuesta a la predicción fue correcta.

    2. What condition was simulated when the PCO2 was lowered?


    Your answer:
    -Hiperventilación

    3. Describe what happened to the concentration of ions in the urine when the PCO2 was raised. How well did the results
    compare with your prediction?
    Your answer:
    -Cuando se elevó la concentración de PCO2 se presentó una disminución del pH, esto se ve reflejado en el aumento de H+
    y la disminución de HCO3- en la orina.
    -Mi respuesta fue acertada.

    4. What condition was simulated when the PCO2 was raised?


    Your answer:
    -Hipoventilación.
