### Question: Effects of Ischemia on Metabolic Responses

Ischemia is most likely to cause:

- **Option 1)** Metabolic acidosis with increased respirations
- **Option 2)** Metabolic acidosis with decreased respirations
- **Option 3)** Metabolic alkalosis with increased respirations
- **Option 4)** Metabolic alkalosis with decreased respirations

**Explanation:**
This question assesses the understanding of the physiological response to ischemia, particularly which metabolic condition is most likely to occur and how the body compensates for it through respiration. 

When the body experiences ischemia, which is a restriction of blood supply, it typically leads to metabolic acidosis. This occurs due to the accumulation of lactic acid and other metabolic byproducts when cells switch to anaerobic metabolism in the absence of adequate oxygen. The body compensates for metabolic acidosis by increasing respiration to excrete more carbon dioxide, which helps normalize the blood pH.
