Is sulfuric acid dangerous to living organisms?
yes
Why is nucleic acid so important to living organisms?
Nucleic acid is important to living organisms because they are large molecules which hold tons of details and genetic information. They make us who we are.
What is the benefit carbonic acid?
Carbonic acid helps in buffering system of blood. They help in maintenance of the constant body pH.
How does the human body get rid of carbonic acid?
The body can break down carbonic acid into carbon dioxide and water. (It can exhale carbon dioxide and either uses or urinates out the water.) Carbonic acid is part of the system that keeps the pH of your blood stable. When your blood starts to get too acidic, it converts the excess carbonic acid into carbon dioxide and water. When you blood gets too basic/alkaline, it converts the excess carbon dioxide and water into carbonic acid.
Hypoventilation dramatically increases carbonic acid concentration and involves?
Hypoventilation dramatically increases carbonic acid concentration and involves extremely fast breathing.
What are some kinds of chemical weathering?
the causes of chemical weathering is: erosion, water, oxygen, and living organisms.
Does Water and carbonic acid play a major role in the chemical weathering of rocks?
Yes, it is correct; for example calcium carbonate react with carbonic acid.
What organic acid is present in all living things?
Probably carbonic acid. H2CO3
Two kinds of rock that are easily weathered by carbonic acid?

Is Carbonic acid an organic acid?
No. Carbonic acid is inorganic.
What is a correct statement about sulfuric acid?
Sulfuric acid is dangerous to living organisms.
Is the carbonic acid a strong volatile acid?
