-Which figure represents metabolic alkalosis?

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Metabolic alkalosis is characterized by an increase in blood pH due to a primary increase in bicarbonate concentration or a decrease in hydrogen ion concentration. Figure E (5) would represent metabolic alkalosis if it shows an increase in blood pH beyond the normal range, typically indicated by a higher bicarbonate level or lower hydrogen ion concentration compared to the other figures.
