Contact [7]
<span>The correct answer is that he has injured one of the tendons or ligaments that help keep his knee in place, connecting it to the surrounding muscle and bone. As a result of this injury, his knee is no longer connected to the muscle and bone, thus it wobbled sideways when he started walking. He needs to go to a doctor immediately who can fix his knee so as to prevent further complications - he just needs his knee to be set in place again.</span>

Radda [10]

Answer:

Considering that homeostasis is restored in the patient, his blood pH range would return to normal levels (7.35-7.45), and his hydrogen ion concentration in the blood would normalize. The effect of normalizing the body by getting rid of excess hydrogen ions is achieved by concentrating these ions into the urine for expulsion, therefore increasing the pH levels of urine.

Explanation:

Acidosis is the condition wherein excessive acid build-up within the body causes the blood pH to become lower than normal (normal pH range 7.35-7.45). This may be due to an excessive loss of bicarbonate in the blood, also known as metabolic acidosis, or due to an impairment in the elimination of carbon dioxide in the blood from poor lung function, also known as respiratory acidosis. The body's natural response to acidosis is to increase the breathing rate to eliminate carbon dioxide in the blood, restoring the natural pH of the body.

In people with diabetes mellitus type I, the lack of insulin causes cells to breakdown fat aside from glucose as an energy source. This process produces ketones as a metabolic by-product for energy but also causes the body to be acidic. This is known as diabetic ketoacidosis.

USPshnik [31]
I would say that the fishes exhibited the greatest diversity (though the brachiopods also had considerable diversity) and mostly were of the ostracoderms (with a platey or shell-like skin and no jawbone) which exhibited many varieties and also the placoderm which had gills, a jawbone and fins so was developing characteristics of modern fish.
