Chapter 25.5, Problem 36LO
Summary Introduction

To describe: The components of the protein buffering system and where and how they help to prevent pH changes.

Concept introduction: Acids are molecules and ions that can donate a proton to form a covalent bond. The body has two categories of acids: fixed acid and volatile acid. Acid-base balance is essential for maintenance of fluid balance. Chemical buffer systems are present in the body that act rapidly to prevent pH changes that occur and maintain the pH within the optimum level of 7.35 to 7.45.
