The two systems that control pH in the body are the respiratory system and the renal system. The respiratory system helps regulate pH by controlling the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the blood through breathing. The renal system, or kidneys, regulate pH by excreting or reabsorbing hydrogen ions (H+) and bicarbonate ions (HCO3-) in the urine.

What 2 systems control homeostasis?
The nervous and endocrine systems control homeostasis
What is the lowest pH in the body and where?
stomach has the lowest pH in your body as it HydroChloric acid in it. it should be somewhere between 1.5-2
What regulates pH?
PH is regulated by Homeostasis mechanisms in the body, by balancing the acid base, hydrogen in the blood. 1- Buffer systems a) Bicarbonate BS b) phosphate BS c) Protein BS 2 - respiratory system 3 - Renal (urinary) system
What are the 2 large lightweight respiratory systems of the body?
lungs
Compare the optimum pH levels for trypsin and pepsin. how is the optimal pH level of pepsin relevant to it's particular location in the body?
pepsin is found in the stomach and the pH there is 2 while trypsin is found in the small intestine (duodenum and jejunum) and the pH there is 8-9. Thus, the optimum pH levels for pepsin and trypsin are 2 and 8-9 respectively.

How acidic should your body be?
Ever body part has a different pH. The pH of blood should be 7.4. The pH of gastric acids in your stomach is 2-3. The pH or urine is around neutral 7.
How much pH does a lemon have?
A lemon has a pH that ranges from 2-3. Though lemons are highly acidic on the pH scale, they have an alkaline effect on the body.

What 2 body systems works together to help an animal move?
Skeletal and nervous systems
What are the 2 principal organs involved with pH regulation of body fluids?
Kidneys and lungs

How many major systems in the body?
Systems are groups of bodily organs acting together to perform one or more functions. The human body is composed of 10 major systems.
How do you maintain pH?
2 main systems affect your blood ph that are in equilibrium Renal system through HCO3 (bicarb - Alkalinic) Respiratory system through CO2 (carbon dioxide - acidic)
