In a car accident, Jane suffered a chest injury that resulted in impaired breathing and respiratory acidosis. How will her body compensate for this imbalance? a) kidneys eliminate bicarbonate ions.
B) kidneys retain bicarbonate ions.
c) kidneys retain hydrogen ions.
d) kidneys eliminate carbon dioxide.

B) kidneys retain bicarbonate ions

Explanation:

Respiratory acidosis involves the inability of the lungs to remove the Carbon dioxide in the body which result in the blood being acidic.

Jane was said to suffer a chest injury that resulted in impaired breathing and respiratory acidosis. Her body will compensate for this imbalance through the kidneys having the ability to retain bicarbonate ions. This helps to reduce the acidity as the ions are alkaline in nature.

it's c. (to reduce the greenhouse effect/carbon gasses)

emerging idea only occurs as a raw idea that could appear out of nowhere. meanwhile, to reach scientific consensus , that idea must be structured and tested over and over again through various experiments. the scientific consensus transforms the raw idea into idea that is more reliable through the process of scientific elimination.
