Renal correction of hyperkalemia will result in which of the following?

A. Alkalosis
B. Acidosis
C. Increased secretion of HCO3
D. Increased secretion of H+
E. Increased excretion of Na+

I think its Metabolic acidosis which leads to increased excretion of H+ in the kidney.

  #3

C. Increased secretion of HCO3

prathap...
i think its alkalosis sec. to incresed excretion of H

  #5

Hyperkalemia--->Acidosis--->Kidney compensation by increasing H+ secretion

  #6

agree with D, b/c K and H are exchanged at the DCT
also corrcetion of K (shifting into cells) would lead H to come out and be secreted at the levels of the kidneys
