18 Take a look at this college-level biology question Prothalli Fronds Stipes Roots Rhizomes The creeping horizontal and subterranean stems of ferns are referred to as
19
19 Now examine this college-level biology question An increase in 0 2 concentration in the plasma will lead to a decrease in H + concentration An increase in CO 2 concentration in the plasma will lead to an increase in H + concentration A decrease in sweating will lead to an increase in HCO 3 concentration A decrease in respiration will lead to an increase in plasma O 2 concentration The equation above shows a reversible reaction that occurs in blood. An Olympic marathoner training at high altitude in Colorado feels dizzy and begins hyperventilating while taking a run. Her blood pH is elevated, resulting in alkalosis. How will normal blood pH be restored? H + + HCO 3 H 2 0 + C0 2
