Question

during trasport of CO2 blood does not become acidic why??

Answer 1

blood is a buffer solution that resist pH change in it

Answer 2

Carbon dioxide is transported in the bloodfrom the tissue to the lungs in three ways:1 (i) dissolved in solution; (ii) buffered with water as carbonic acid; (iii) bound to proteins, particularly haemoglobin. Approximately 75% of carbon dioxide is transport in the red bloodcell and 25% in the plasma. Some of the carbon dioxide is transporteddissolved in the plasma. Some carbon dioxideis transported as carbaminohemoglobin. However, most carbon dioxide is transportedas bicarbonate. As blood flows through the tissues, carbon dioxide diffuses into red blood cells, where it is converted into bicarbonate.
