Naily [24]3 years ago

Answer:

c. increase blood pH.

d. interfere with oxygen binding to hemoglobin.

Explanation:

A inhibitor of carbonic anhydrase increases the pH of the blood due to prevent the production of carbonic acid from the carbon dioxide formed during cellular respiration. This carbonic acid decreases the pH of the blood so inhibitor of carbonic anhydrase is responsible for the increase in the pH. It also interfere with oxygen binding to hemoglobin because oxygen bind with hemoglobin in low pH but the pH is higher due to inhibitor of carbonic anhydrase.

Answer:

d. interfere with oxygen binding to hemoglobin

Explanation:

Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors are commonly used as diuretic drugs (usually for treatment against high blood pressure), acting in the carbonic anhydrase enzime, in the proximal tubes of the kidneys.

To achieve this effect, these diuretics inhibit the reabsorption of sodium bicarbonate, and consequently, reducing its concentration in the blood due to the high excretion of this compound.

Thus, by eliminating more bicarbonate, an increase in the concentration of carbon dioxide in the blood plasma can occur, which makes it difficult to fix oxygen in the red blood cells, in addition to causing metabolic acidosis, by decreasing blood pH.

So the correct alternative is "D", while the others are false.

Acute inferior myocardial infarction. Documented mildly occlusive plaque with much clot in the right coronary artery

<h3>What is myocardial infarction?</h3>
  • A myocardial infarction (MI), also referred to as a heart attack, happens when blood flow to the heart's coronary artery is reduced or interrupted, harming the heart muscle.
  • The most typical symptom is discomfort or soreness in the chest, which may radiate to the shoulder, arm, back, neck, or jaw. It frequently lasts more than a few minutes and usually happens in the center or left side of the chest.
  • Sometimes the discomfort may feel like heartburn. Other signs and symptoms could include fatigue, shortness of breath, nausea, feeling dizzy, and cold sweats.
  • Atypical symptoms are present in about 30% of patients. Women more frequently experience arm, neck, or fatigue discomfort instead of chest pain.
