Importance of buffers in the human body?

How does a human body control the level of acids and bases inside their body?
buffers
What is the role of buffers in the human body systems?
Buffers resist pH changes in cell cytoplasm, and in extracellular fluids.
Where in the human body are buffers found?
Buffers are found throughout the human body, including in the blood, intracellular fluid, and extracellular fluid. These buffers help maintain a stable pH by absorbing or releasing hydrogen ions to prevent drastic changes in acidity or alkalinity. Examples of buffer systems in the body include bicarbonate in the blood and proteins in cells.
Is argon a natural element in the human body?
no. argon is not found in the human body
How is the pH level of a substance affected by buffers and why are buffers important in the human body?
Buffers "slow" changes in pH (they make it difficult to change pH), and for animals a constant pH (internally) is critical to survival. (A change in pH of 1 - in either direction - will kill you.)
Is the human body a natural resource?
no it is not
Why are proteins and amino acid considered to be natural buffers?
Because of their amphoteric nature they can act as natural buffers.
What are the important buffers in our body?
There are many buffers in the body. These buffers can be found in the mouth and in the stomach to aid in digestion.
Where do natural killer (NK) cells originate in the human body?
Natural killer (NK) cells originate in the bone marrow of the human body.
What happens to your body without buffers?
Without buffers, the body's pH levels can fluctuate dramatically, leading to potentially fatal conditions such as acidosis or alkalosis. Buffers help maintain the body's pH within a narrow range by absorbing excess acid or base, preventing these extreme fluctuations. Without buffers, essential chemical processes in the body could be disrupted, impacting overall function and health.
What is produced by the body to help neutralize conditions?
buffers
