Answer:

The best answer to the question: Recovery from a severe metabolic acidosis is most dependent on which of the following? would be, D: Arterial pH.

Explanation:

When a person reaches such a severe situation, as having metabolic acidosis, then it means that his body systems are not being able to use the mechanisms to restore the normal acid-base balance within it. Normally, a person needs to have an acid-base balance of 7.35 to 7.45. Drops below or above these numbers will result in acidosis or alkalosis and in severe problems. The way that the body can tell if there is something going on with the pH levels in the blood is through a series of chemoreceptors, especially in the neck, that constantly measures the amount of CO2 molecules in the blood and especially, the pH (acidity or alkalinity) given by the excessive presence, or absence, of acids in the blood. There is another ration that is important for the body, and it is the presence of bicarbonate ions, which will help balance out the amount of H+ ions produced by normal cell function, or increased cell function. In metabolic acidosis, the amount of H+ vs. bicarbonate ions is immense, H+ winning by far over bicarnonate, and a series of steps are taken by the body to restore the 20:1 ratio, and especially return the pH to its normal range. All mechanisms point towards that one measure: pH. Once the level of pH has been reached, we can tell a person is finally coming out of metabolic, or recovering from, metabolic acidosis.

Some hormones act through cell membrane receptors that stimulate adenylate cyclase activity and production of _____________.
Tresset [83]

Answer:

The answer to fill in the blank in this question: Some hormones act through cell membrane receptors that stimulate adenylate cyclase activity and production of:____, would be: cAMP.

Explanation:

In the process of hormonal regulation of cells there are two ways in which this can happen: direct activation of DNA inside a cell through steroid hormones, who do not need any kind of mediators to enter the cytoplasm of a cell and activate its genetic material, or indirect activation, which is the common way for non-steroidal hormones, such as epinephrine. In this second scenario a hormone will reach the cell and lock onto a receptor on the plasma membrane. The effect is that a G-protein, which is adjacent to the receptor, activates the second-messenger system, meaning that the activity the hormone came to initiate, will depend on these mediators. the G-protein will then activate adenylate cyclase, which in turn will activate ATP and transform it into cAMP. It is cyclic AMP (cAMP) which will finally relay the original message sent through the hormone, to the genetic material of the cell.
