New cards
what is the chemical reaction for pH homeostasis
CO2 + H2O →carbonic anhydrase→ H2CO3 → H + HCO
2
New cards
how do you increase H (inc acidity, lower pH) and how do you decrease H (Dec acidity, raise pH)
inc acidity, lower pH - inc reactants to inc products
Dec acidity, raise pH - dec reactants to Dec products
