A young man is found comatose, having taking an unknown number of sleeping pills an unknown time before. An arterial blood sample yields the following values: pH = 7.02, HCO3− = 14 mEq/L, and PCO2 = 68 mm Hg. This patient’s acid–base status is most accurately described as

Cell cycle is regulated by master regulators (cyclin and CDKs). In vertebrates, G1 CDK activity rises during G1 and is stimulated by the presence of growth factors. When signaling from growth factors is sustained, the resulting cyclin D–CDK4/6 complexes begin phosphorylating Rb, releasing some E2F, which stimulates transcription of the genes encoding cyclin E, CDK2, and E2F itself. In a particular cell type there is a mutation in Rb such that it cannot be phosphorylated. What will be the correct expression pattern of cyclin E in these cells after mitotic stimulation?
