Since Mr. Henderson's lungs are causing the acid-base disturbance and cannot help him compensate, his kidneys will be the primary mechanism to help him regulate pH. The kidneys help regulate the composition of plasma when water and solutes are exchanged between plasma and the renal tubules. Reabsorption moves substances from the renal tubules to the plasma, and secretion moves substances fr and solutes that exit the collecting ducts at the end of the renal tubules become urine. Let's review how changes in secretion change the composition blood and urine. If tubular secretion increases, then blood levels will and urine levels will > View Available Hint(s) O increase, decrease O decrease, decrease O decrease, increase O increase, increase Submit

Tissue regeneration & repair

Tissue regeneration involves the restoration of tissue components by regrowth of damaged tissues. In contrast, tissue repair involves patching of injured tissue rather than restoring it. It is the proliferative capacity of the cells that decides the amount of regeneration against the repair that would occur in the tissue. Both regeneration and repair depending on the duration of the injury and response to the inflammation.
