Another situation is when living cells get affected by respiratory acidosis, which is when the carbon dioxide levels rise because a person isn't breathing or ventilating it out of the lungs quickly enough.

另一种情况是活细胞受到呼吸性酸中毒的影响，即一个人由于没有迅速呼吸排出CO2，导致血中CO2水平上升。

Now, this isn't always the case for acidosis, though, for example, in respiratory acidosis, potassium levels aren't affected because CO2 is lipid soluble and freely moves into cells without being exchanged for potassium, therefore no hyperkalemia.

但是酸中毒的情况并不都是如此，例如，在呼吸性酸中毒时，钾离子水平不受影响，因为CO2是脂溶性的，可以自由进出细胞不需要钾离子做交换，因此这种情况下，不会产生高钾血症。
