Answer 1

Q. No. 1. Answer :

One of the Hormonal fluid regulator in the body is " Antidiuretic hormone ".

Q. No. 2. Answer :

Normal PH level is " 7.35 to 7.45 ".

Acid Base imbalance :

* if the PH level is below 7.35 indicates Acidosis.

* and Above 7.45 indicates Alkalosis.

* Respiratory Acidosis ph levels decreases and, pco2 levels will increases.

* Respiratory alkalosis PH levels increases and PCo2 levels decreases.

* In Metabolic acidosis PH and Bicarbonate levels are decreases.

* In Metabolic alkalosis PH and Bicarbonate levels are increases.

* When the PH is normal that plus " 7.4" ( base line or neutral) it indicates compensated .
