The bicarbonate buffering system in the blood is the most important buffering system in the ECF. Bicarbonate ion and carbonic acid are the key components of this buffering system. The weak base <u>bicarbonate</u> serves to buffer the strong acid <u>H+</u><u>.</u> The buffer to the strong base <u>OH-</u><u> </u>is <u>carbonic acid</u>. The byproduct of these reactions is <u>water.</u>
Explanation:
A buffer system utilizes chemical buffers and resists any changes in the pH and adjusts acidity and alkalinity of the medium by binding or releasing H+ ions accordingly.
A bicarbonate buffering system in the ECF regulates the bicarbonate level and maintains the normal acidity level of blood.
Sodium bicarbonate reacting with a strong acid (HCl) produces a weak acid (carbonic acid) and sodium chloride. A strong base like (NaOH) reacts with carbonic acid producing bicarbonate and water.
NaHCo3 + HCl → H2CO3 + NaCl
H2Co3 + NaOH → HCO3 + H20
The acidity of the blood is regulated by maintaining the ratio of bicarbonate and carbonic acid at 20:1 under normal conditions through the bicarbonate buffer system. The carbonic acid level is regulated by the respiratory system; while carbonate level is regulated by the renal system.
Answer:
Chances are, you haven't infected the bacteria in a hospital setting or surgery, as you could have contacted them anywhere.
What happened with said patient was the face of the immunosuppressive treatment, the defense of the patient was decreased and it generated a worse picture with a bacterium that would not act in such a pathogenic way in another person who does not receive corticosteroid treatment.
This deduction could be made since prior to pneumonia and meningitis there were other infections that occurred in the patient indicating immunosuppression or lowered immunity, which were alerts for professionals.
Explanation:
The immunosuppression generated by corticosteroids is an adverse effect of said drug, thus causing bacteria or other pathogenic microorganisms to more easily generate lethal diseases that occur, similar to the human immuno-insufficiency syndrome.
These pneumonias and meningitis are very common in children but not in adults, which means that the defense of acquired immunity throughout life would not be serious.
In patients like these where corticosteroids suppress the path of humoral defense factors, thus inhibiting the presence of COX and thromboxane A2 in the immune lineage, that is why the immunological tests are weakened and the bacteria have more spread or harmful effects such as this patient.
The bacterium does not indicate that it is intra-surgical or hospital-based because of the severity of the disease it triggered, but because the patient is immunosuppressed.

The answer would be D. Empiricality. Scientific Method can not, and will not deal with studies that are either for logic or for theism. This field may be beyond the scientific confirmability, meaning, it can not be proven by science, one example of this is the existence of a primary mover, or a God.
Answer: 50 joules and 100 joules assuming there is no friction.
