Classify the following statements as compensations made by either the respiratory or renal systems.
1. It is slower to respond to pH imbalances but better at restoring a fully normal pH.
2. It is effective at compensating for pH imbalances that last for a few days or longer.
3. It can adjust a blood pH of 7.0 back to 7.2 or 7.3, but not to 7.4.
4. it is very effective in correcting pH imbalances due lo abnormal partial pressure of carbon dioxide but not effective in correcting sther causes of acidosis and alkalosis
5. It compensates for short-term pH imbalances, such as the acidosis that might result from an asthmatic attack
6. Compensation is accomplished by expelling or retaining carbon dioxide.
Option:
a. Renal Compensation
b. Respiratory Compensation
