The bicarbonate buffer system is considered an open buffer system because it can interact with other chemical species in the body to help maintain a stable pH. It involves the reversible conversion of carbonic acid to bicarbonate ion, allowing it to adapt to changes in pH by either accepting or releasing protons. This flexibility enables it to effectively buffer against fluctuations in acidity.
