Question

part 1: exercise and blood ph
as a person exercises, muscle cells that do not receive enough oxygen will begin releasing lactic acid.
lactic acid in water has a low (acidic) ph. is the same true for blood?
change the intensity of the workout to see how much lactic acid is produced. the higher the value, the more intense the workout. compare the ph of blood and water that contain the same concentration of lactic acid.
after you answer the question in the notebook, select next.

Explanation:

Blood has a buffering system. Lactic acid in water lowers pH due to its acidity. But in blood, buffers resist pH - change. So, blood with lactic acid does not have as low a pH as water with the same lactic - acid concentration.

Answer:

No, blood has a buffering system that resists pH changes, so it will not have the same low pH as water when containing the same concentration of lactic acid.
