When kidney function is impaired, the PH level in the blood is disturbed. How would this loss of homeostasis affect the body’s cells?

Answer:
The production and removal of CO2 and H+, together with the use and transport of O2, cause chemical changes in the blood. These chemical changes, unless offset by other physiological functions, cause the pH of the blood to drop. If the pH of the body gets too low (below 7.4), a condition known as acidosis results.
