Answer to Question 1

The extracellular and intracellular buffer systems act immediately, the pulmonary system acts within 2 to 3 hours, and the renal system responds within 2 to 3 days.

Answer to Question 2

Mitral stenosis is most commonly caused by rheumatic heart disease. Rheumatic heart disease has not been linked to mitral valve prolapse, aortic regurgitation, or aortic stenosis.
