What is Respiratory System and pH Regulation about?
The respiratory system regulates blood pH by removing carbon dioxide (CO2) from the blood, a process controlled by the respiratory center in the medulla oblongata that adjusts breathing rate in response to pH changes. When CO2 is exhaled, it helps maintain the acid-base balance by affecting the formation of carbonic acid and bicarbonate ions. Increased physical activity can lead to excess CO2 production, prompting an increase in respiratory rate to restore pH levels.
