Substance Q moves from the glomerular plasma to Bowman’s space without restriction. In the proximal tubule, Q binds to Na+ coupled transporter and crosses the luminal membrane.  Q diffuses through the cytoplasm of the renal cell and is translocated to the interstitium via a facilitated diffusion transporter.  With the given information, what can be concluded about the renal processing of substance Q?

A person rides the light rail train surrounded by people who are coughing and sneezing. They are so concerned about being exposed to germs that they drink some rubbing alcohol (isopropyl) to cleanse their system.  A family member calls paramedics, and they are taken to the hospital.  They are evaluated and the following lab values are taken. PCO2 = 30mmHg, HCO3- = 18 mM, pH = 7.33 What is this patient’s primary acid base disorder?
