When co2 levels are high the kidneys reabsorb this to compensate?

Chemistry

Answer:by decreasing bicarbonate excretion and increasing acid excretion

Explanation:

The condition in which Carbondioxide, CO2 levels are high in the blood, the phenomenon is known as acidosis which is the opposite of alkalosis which is the decrease in Carbondioxide,CO2 level in the blood. In human blood, there is acid and there is base as well. Both acid and base present in human beings' blood must be balanced for proper functioning of the body system.

There are ways the organs in our bodies respond to deviations Which is the reason behind the kidney compensate by decreasing bicarbonate excretion and increasing acid excretion.

Elevated carbon dioxide mean too much acid in the blood.  <span>Increase acid excretion (intercalated cells secrete H+ into tubules) and decrease bicarbonate excretion. They also make new bicarbonate to add to the plasma.</span>

jolli1 [7]

Becquerel  did not discover that the amount of exposure on the paper was proportional to the amount of uranium that was present in the rocks

<h3>What is radioactivity?</h3>

The phenomenon of radioactivity was discovered by the French scientist Henri Becquerel in 1896 when he placed photographic paper in a drawer with some radioactive rocks.

We have to note that Becquerel did not discover that the amount of exposure on the paper was proportional to the amount of uranium that was present in the rocks hence the stetement is false.

A waste treatment pond is 50 m long and 25 m wide, and has an average depth of 2 m. The density of the waste is 75.3lbm/ft^3 .Ca
umka21 [38]

Answer:

W = 6.65 \cdot 10^{6} lbf

Explanation:

To find the weight (W) of the pond contents first we need to use the following equation:

W = m\cdot g   (1)

Where m the mass and g is the gravity  

Also, we have that the mass is:

m = \rho*V  (2)    

Where ρ is the density and V the volume

We cand calculate the volume as follows:

V = L*w*d   (3)

Where L is the length, w is the wide and d is the depth  

By entering equation (2) and (3) into (1) we have:

W = \rho*L*w*d*g

W = 75.3 lbm/ft^{3}*50 m*25 m*2 m*9.81 m/s^{2}  

W = 75.3 lbm/ft^{3}*\frac{(1 ft)^{3}}{(0.3048 m)^{3}}*\frac{0.454 kg}{1 lbm}*50 m*25 m*2 m*9.81 m/s^{2} = 2.96 \cdot 10^{7} N}*\frac{0.2248 lbf}{1 N} = 6.65\cdot 10^{6} lbf              

Therefore, the weight of the pond is 6.65x10⁶ lbf.

I hope it helps you!
