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.
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.
