results when too much CO2 is removed from the
blood;
_________________________ results when too little CO2 is removed
from the blood.
The ___________ of an acid or base refers to its ability to ionize.
Weak /
strong (circle one) acids (e.g., _________) or bases (e.g., _____________)
dissociate readily;
Weak / strong (circle one) acids (e.g., _________)
or bases (e.g., _____________) do not dissociate readily.

A/an
decrease / increase (circle one) in pH results from decreased
ventilation
A/an decrease / increase (circle one) in pH results
from increased ventilation.
