Difference between Metabolic Acidosis and Respiratory Acidosis

The upcoming discussion will update you about the difference between Metabolic Acidosis and Respirator Acidosis. Difference # Metabolic Acidosis: 1. Bicarbonate (HCO3-) deficit. 2. pH lowered. 3. Respiratory-low pH stimulates respiratory centre causing decrease in [H2CO3]. 4. Urinary pH-acidic. 5. Abnormal increase in anions due to endogenous production of acid ions, ingestion of acidifying salts, and renal insufficiency. 6. Abnormal [...]

Difference between Metabolic Alkalosis and Respiratory Alkalosis | Acid-Base Regulation

The upcoming discussion will update you about the difference between Metabolic Alkalosis and Respiratory Alkalosis. Difference # Metabolic Alkalosis: 1. HCO3- excess. 2. pH increased. 3. Disproportionate increase in [HCO3- ], [H2CO3], PCO2, pH. 4. Depression of respiratory centre and hyperventilation leading to retention of CO2. 5. In renal mechanism, there is increased NH3 formation and H+ - Na+ exchange, [...]

Difference between DNA and RNA | Nucleic Acids

The upcoming discussion will update you about the difference between DNA and RNA . Difference # DNA: 1. They are formed by 4 types of monomeric units such as adenylate, guanylate, cytidylate and thymidylate. 2. The sugar moiety is deoxyribose. 3. They are present in nucleus, probably in the chromosomes. 4. They carry "genetic Information" from one genera­tion of cells [...]
