- Which three statements accurately describe the blood buffering system in humans? - The blood buffering system utilizes the H2CO3H2CO3/HCO–3HCO3– conjugate acid/base pair. - The blood buffering system utilizes the acetic acid/acetate conjugate acid/base pair. - The blood buffering system is facilitated by the enzyme carbonic anhydrase, which interconverts carbon dioxide and water to carbonic acid, ionizing into bicarbonate and H+H+ . - The blood buffering system maintains the pH of blood near 7.4. - The blood buffering system depends on the ionization of H2PO–4H2PO4– .arrow_forwardIf an accident victim loses 1 L of blood, why would an intravenous infusion of a liter of plasma be more effective for replacing the lost volume than infusing a liter of an equally concentrated crystalloid (e.g., sodium chloride) solution?arrow_forwardOne liter of Hartmann’s solution is to be given over 12 hours.
