| If ph drops due to respiratory dysfunction. rate CO2 production eceeds rate of elimation which results in RR rate and depth increasing to 'blow off' CO2 | Respiratory acidosis |
| If PH rises due to hyperventilation. rate of CO2 elimination exceeds rate of production which results in RR rate and depth decrease to conserve CO2 | Respiratory alkalosis |
| If pH drops due to a non respiratory cause. | Metabolic acidosis |
| If pH rises to due a non respiratory cause | Metabolic alkalosis |
| Works quickly to maintain the narrow pH levels. binds excess H+ to increase pH or releases pH to decrease pH | Buffer system |
| Acts quickly. increasing rate and depth of breathing increases exhalation of CO2 to increase pH | Respiratory system |
| Maintains pH by controlling secretion and reabsorption of H+ and HCO3- | Renal regulation oh pH |
