Answer:

Cause of male infertility are:

  • Abnormal sperm production or improper functioning because of undescended testicles
  • Genetic conditions like Klinefelter syndrome
  • Health problems such as diabetes or infections such as chlamydia, gonorrhea, mumps & HIV
  • Enlargement of testes veins also result in low sperm count

Low sperm count symptoms are:

  • Problem with sex activity - low sex drive or difficulty in maintaining the erection eg.Erectile dysfunction
  • Pain or lump in the testicle area
  • Decreased facial or body hair or other symptoms of chromosomal or hormonal disorders

<u>Klinefelter syndrome  :</u>

It is a genetic problem in which a male is born with supplemental copy of X chromosome. It usually occurs as a consequence of genetic purposeless error after the  conception.

Signs & symptoms include:

  • Taller than average stature
  • Absent, delayed or incomplete puberty
  • Small & firm testicles
  • Small penis
  • Enlarge breasts ( gynecomastia)
  • Long legs, short torso & broader hips in comparison with other teens

Treatment of low sperm count include:

  • Surgery:  A varicocele can be corrected surgically or vas deferens can be repaired
  • Treatment for sexual intercourse problems
  • Hormone therapy & medications
  • Assisted reproductive technology
  • Treating infections

A 17-year-old male develops pneumonia, diabetic ketoacidosis, and metabolic acidosis. Respiratory compensation to a metabolic ac
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

The best answer from the choices, to the question: The cause of the hyperventilation is described by which of the following statement:___, would be, B: A decrease in the bicarbonate concentration stimulates ventilation.

Explanation:

The acid-base balance in the human body, is a very restrictive one. Normal ranges in this base are: 7.35 to 7.45. Whenever the values go either below 7.35 or above 7.45, we are talking about a person going into acidosis or alkalosis. Both situations are pretty serious and they have to do with the balance between the amounts of bicarbonate, and CO2 in the form of carbonic acid, in the blood. The normal ratio of bicarbonate to carbonic acid, is usually 20:1. Chemoreceptors, especially central ones in the neck, measure constantly that the balance is kept and if this is not the case, then several mechanisms will be put into place to recover it. One such measure is respiratory, and the other is metabolic. In the case of this 17-year-old, he has a pneumonia, which means that from the start, one of his recovery mechanisms is impeded, which is the respiratory mechanism of balance. He is also having metabolic problems with his system of compensation because his body is already producing high levels of H+ ions and not enough bicarbonate. Hyperventilation in this person is attempting to expel as much CO2 as possible, to try and restore the balance. The first thing that is sensed by the receptors is the changing in the 20:1 ratio, the increase in pH due to too much carbonic acid, and thus the body initiates the use of CO2 expulsion by the lungs, while metabolic mechanisms come into play.
