| buffers, resp mechanism, renal mechanism | ways acid/base balance maintained |
| acid | decrease ph, increased H+ |
| alkaline | increase ph, decrease H+ |
| if Na reabsorbed in distal tubules | H+ or K+ must be secreted |
| if ph decreases | resp increase to rid of excess H+/CO2 |
| if ph increases | resp decrease to hold onto H+/CO2 |
| intracellular | inside the cells |
| extracellular | outside the cells |
| ADH | post pit., less urine output |
| Aldosterone | adrenal cortex, reabsorb Na, less urine |
| ANH | atrial wall, ^ urine output, less Na/H2O reabsorb. |
| K level | 3.5-5.0 |
| Na level | 135-145 |
| Cl level | 96-106 |
| Ca level | 8.4-10.6 |
