During respiratory compensation of metabolic alkalosis
Select all that apply
a. breathing becomes a slower and shallower
b. carbon dioxide levels in the body decreases
c. carbon dioxied levels in the body increases
d. there is an increase in the concentration of carbonic anhydrase
e. breathing becomes faster and deeper
Metabolic alkalosis would cause slower and shallower breathing which increase carbon dioxide concentrations which in turn are consumed to form carbonic acid which helps decrease the pH.
