-Which figure represents respiratory alkalosis?​

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Respiratory alkalosis is characterized by a decrease in carbon dioxide levels in the blood, resulting in an increase in blood pH. Figure 3 shows a decreased carbon dioxide level (hypoventilation) and an increased pH level, indicating respiratory alkalosis. The other figures show either normal or abnormal pH and carbon dioxide levels that do not fit the criteria for respiratory alkalosis.
