Answer:

In this system, carbon dioxide diffuses into the red blood cells. Carbonic anhydrase (CA) within the red blood cells quickly converts the carbon dioxide into carbonic acid (H2CO3). ... If too much H+ is produced, it can alter blood pH. However, hemoglobin binds to the free H+ ions and thus limits shifts in pH.

hey there this is your answer...!!!

In the outward diffusion, however, the PCO2 change was smaller, suggesting that H+ ions produced in the external solution by CO2 hydration were rapidly buffered by the red cell. ... That is, at a low pH range the permeation of H+ ions across the red cell membrane was much faster than the diffusion rate of CO2.

hope this helps...!!!
