Answer:

The correct option is the pKa of acetic acid or acetate.

Explanation:

The blood pH is affected by hyperventilation since it triggers hypercapnia, an increase in metabolic acids and therefore a decrease in blood pH.

Excessive consumption of sodium bicarbonate, since this would alkalize the blood, and finally, prolonged fasting or excessive hunger generates the degradation of fat sources, with the consequent formation of ketone bodies as a product, and therefore entering a metabolic acidosis.

A child was exposed to a disease-causing virus (most likely chicken pox from the Varicella zoster virus) when he was 5 years old
STatiana [176]

Answer: What is expected to happen is that the secondary immune system acts immediately against the virus.

Explanation:

When a virus first enters our body, in order to defend itself, the body must first recognize what the antigen is in order to fight it through <u>antibodies</u>. Once it does it will keep a memory of it that it can use if this virus enters the body again. <u>This will be done through the secondary immune system</u>.

As the body already recognizes the antigen, it knows how to fight it immediately, generating a thousand times the amount of antibodies generated the first time.

Thanks to its memory cells, the virus will remain much less time in the body.

How did each change to the land affect the fish in the pond?
N76 [4]
<span>Lakes and ponds are inland bodies of standing or slowly moving water. Although lakes and ponds cover only 2 percent of the world's land surface, they contain most of the world's fresh water. Individual lakes and ponds range in area from a few square meters to thousands of square kilometers. In general, ponds are smaller than lakes, though regional idiosyncrasies of naming abound—Henry David Thoreau's famous Walden Pond in Massachusetts has a surface area of 64 acres. Lakes and ponds are an important source of fresh water for human consumption and are inhabited by a diverse suite of organisms.</span>
