Which of the following condition is the most common cause of increase anion gap? A. Metabolic alkalosis B. Metabolic acidosis Respiratory acidosis Respiratory alkalosis - B. Metabolic acidosis High anion gap metabolic acidosis is caused generally by the body producing too much acid or not producing enough bicarbonate. This is often due to an increase in lactic acid or ketoacids, or it may be a sign of kidney failure. More rarely, high anion gap metabolic acidosis may be caused by ingesting meth...

What are plasma B cells? - Answer-Plasma B cells are specialized immune system cells that secrete antibodies, small Y-shaped proteins that can directly attach to and agglutinate, or clump, invading bacteria. Attaching directly to cells is the job of killer- T cells, and engulfing pathogens is the job of macrophages. Clotting is done primarily by platelets and other protein fibers.
