yes because the less you eat the higher it gets u want to not get to high then what it need to be because could cause many problems with your body because many people die of that kind of problems like that.

What buffer system operates in blood plasma Which memberof the buffer system resists a drop in pH Which resists a rise in pH?
Carbonic acid-bicarbonate buffer system Acids (H+) released into the blood by the body cells tend to lower the pH of the blood and cause it to be acidic. Alkali resists a rise in pH
What happens to blood pH when blood sugar levels rise if insulin is not present?
Blood pH will drop from its normal level, between 7.3 to 7.4, to about 7.1 or 7.0.
When blood pH begins to rise the respiratory control centers in the brain are?
depressed
Hyperventilation is most likely to be accompanied by a?
decrease in blood CO2 concentration and a rise in pH
What would low carbon dioxide in blood do?
Slow down breathing, because pH would rise.
What allows you to eat acidic foods without changing your blood pH?
The buffers present in blood resist small changes in pH. The most prominent are phosphate and carbonate buffers in blood.
What is homeostasis how does relate carbon dioxide?
As we perform cellular respiration, the byproduct carbon dioxide builds up in our blood. This is a problem, since it lowers the pH of blood, and pH is one of the factors that we must keep in homeostasis. So, as CO2 rises, blood pH falls, and breathing rate increases, allowing more CO2 to leave they body, and allowing blood pH to rise back to the pH set point.
If the pH of human blood becomes higher than the average pH of 7 what must have occurred and what can be done to bring the pH back to normal?
the natural pH of blood is already 7.4(above neutral 7) Blood contains natural bicarbonate buffers preventing or at least stalling and fixing change in pH. when your blood rises or drops beyond the natural pH, the chemicals in your blood naturally reacts and fixes the change. For blood's pH to spike, a strong acid or base has to be absorbed into the bloodstream. it's natural for blood to rise or fall above or below 7.4 but it usually corrects itself in a matter of minutes. Hope that helps:)
How does PCO2 level in blood affect the pH level in blood?
In healthy subjects the mean PCO2 fall 18 mm Hg from the baseline and mean PO2 rise 7 mmHg
If oxygen is not present what happens to blood pH?
There are two ways the body attempts to compensate for a pH imbalance: Respiratory compensation and metabolic compensation. The blood's normal pH is 7.35-7.45. RESPIRATORY: Breathing rapidly (hyperventilation) or slowly (hyperventilation) are ways the body compensates for imbalanced blood pH. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is acts to acidify the blood (lower the pH). Therefore, the respiratory system attempts to compensate for the imbalance: resulting in hyperventilating (deceasing CO2 contained in the blood) during low blood pH (acidosis). Inversely, hypoventilation occurs during a rise in blood pH (alkalosis). METABOLIC: The kidneys produce sodium bicarbonate, acting as a alkaline substance (raising pH). The increased release of bicarbonate increases blood pH. Inversely, the deceased release of bicarbonate lowers the blood pH. If the body cannot adequately compensate for the pH imbalance it becomes is a life-threatening condition.
The pH of the blood is nearest to what number?
Blood pH = 7.40 (+/- 0.05) (THIS IS THE ANSWER TO THE PH OF BLOOD IS NEAREST TO WHAT NUMBER)=#7
What is the pH of your blood and your cells?
The pH of human blood is about 7.4.
