What body system have the greatest capacity for pH change in the body?
The respiratory system, which includes the lungs and airways, has the greatest capacity for pH change in the body. It can rapidly adjust the levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the blood through breathing, which in turn affects the pH of the body. This process helps regulate the acid-base balance and maintain a stable pH in the body.
How does testing the pH of your saliva provide a gauge of the pH for the entire body?
To test the pH of the saliva and the guess the pH of the entire body is not a logical concept. You better take the blood sample and get the pH tested for the same. It is very accurate method to detect the pH of the body. The pH of the saliva may get acidic due to starchy food you have eaten before the examination of the saliva.
What is body pH?
7.4
Does the body adjust its pH by glomerular filtration?
No. The body adjusts its pH through tubular secretion (of H+ ions).
What maintains the pH of the stomach?
it is all to do with a buffer system in the stomach! the body has many of these systems! its to ensure homostasis! the mucus in the walls of the stomach protect from selfdigestion! the stomach contains hcl which is concentrated! this is what keeps the pH low!

How does the hemoglobin-oxyhemoglobin buffer system help maintain the pH of body fluids?
Hemoglobin oxyhemoglobin is one of the main sources of extracellular fluids for the pH of body fluids. It helps with the protein of the body. It is needed for pH levels.
What do chemoreceptors found in the body and vascular system measure?
blood PH
2 systems control pH in the body. What are they?
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 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
Does hyperventilation lower body pH?
Hyperventilation raises body pH. Hypoventilation lowers body pH.
What is the fastest compensatory mechanism for maintaining ph homeostasis in the human body is?
The chemical buffering system.
What is the most potent of all mechanisms the body uses to regulate blood pH?
The buffer system
What is the body PH of a healthy person versus a person with cancer?
There is no "body pH." Different fluids of the body have different pH.
