Increased secretion of hydrogen ions would result in a of blood a. increase, pressure

Out of the following given choices;

A) increase, pressure B) decrease, volume C) increase, sodium levels D) decrease, pH E) increase, urea

The answer is D. pH is the 10-base logarithmic scale of molarity of hydrogen ions in a solution. Increase in H+ ion in the blood can be caused by metabolic acidosis where carbon dioxide production increases in tissues and dissolves in blood plasma to cause the formation of carbonic acid. Carbonic acid partially dissociates to H+ and bicarbonate ions (HCO3-).

If these are the missing choices: a. to determine skin temperature, place the back of your hand against the patient's skin.b. determine body temperature by touching the patient's hands and feet.c. skin temperature will tell you very little about this patient's condition or well-being.d. the patient's skin temperature and color will likely be warm and red.my answer is: a. to determine skin temperature, place the back of your hand against the patient's skin. using the back of the hand to check for temperature rather than the palm is more effective because the back of the hand has more nerves that can feel and transmit the temperature than the palm.
