Compared to a Blood Sample from a Normal Person Who $\mathrm { P } _ { \mathrm { CO } _ { 2 } }$

Compared to a blood sample from a normal person who is breathing normally,a blood sample from a patient with pulmonary disease that resulted in hypoventilation would probably show

A) Elevated plasma [H⁺], elevated plasma $\mathrm { P } _ { \mathrm { CO } _ { 2 } }$ , and increased plasma [HCO_3-]
B) Elevated plasma [H⁺], elevated plasma $\mathrm { P } _ { \mathrm { CO } _ { 2 } }$ , and decreased plasma [HCO_3-]
C) Elevated plasma [H⁺], decreased plasma $\mathrm { P } _ { \mathrm { CO } _ { 2 } }$ , and decreased plasma [HCO_3-]
D) Decreased plasma [H⁺], elevated plasma $\mathrm { P } _ { \mathrm { CO } _ { 2 } }$ , and decreased plasma [HCO_3-]
E) Decreased plasma [H⁺], decreased plasma $\mathrm { P } _ { \mathrm { CO } _ { 2 } }$ , and decreased plasma [HCO_3-]
