BIOL 221 Lecture Notes - Lecture 11: Hyperkalemia, Ph, Acidosis

15 views4 pages

Document Summary

With hyperkalemia (increased plasma potassium) potassium moves into cells in exchange for hydrogen ions. With hypokalemia potassium ions leave the cell in greater amounts in exchange for hydrogen ions. Indicate the direction that potassium and hydrogen ions would be moved during hyperkalemia and during hypokalemia. Think-pair-share: potassium: acidosis (increased h+) causes h+ to move into cell, which way will k+ move, alkalosis (decreased h+) causes h+ to move out of cell, which way will. K+ move: what happens to k+ of plasma & if concentration when k+ moves, indicate the movement of k+ and h+ on the diagrams. Acidosis (increased h+ concentration) causes hydrogen ions to enter cells in exchange for potassium ions. Alkalosis (decreased h+ concentration) causes hydrogen ions to leave cells in exchange for potassium ions. Indicate the directions of potassium and hydrogen ion movement on the diagrams (use the upper one for acidosis and the lower for alkalosis).
