(b) Mixed metabolic acidosis-respiratory alkalosis
(c) Pure high anion gap metabolic acidosis

(a) Lactose malabsorption
(b) Fatty acid malabsorption
(c) Amino acid malabsorption
(d) Cobalamin malabsorption
9. J-receptors. which are responsible for rapid shallow breathing are located in
(a) Thoracic cage and lung
(b) Carotid artery
(c) Alveolo-capillary junction
(d) Respiratory muscles
J-receptors (juxtacapillary) are nerves innervating into the body of the lung. J-receptors respond to events such as pulmonary edema , pulmonary emboli, pneumonia, and barotrauma, which cause a decrease in oxygenation and thus lead to an increase in ventilation/respiration.The stimulation of the J-receptors causes a reflex increase in breathing rate, and is also thought to be involved in the sensation of dyspnea, the subjective sensation of difficulty breathing.
