3. When our tissues are burning metabolic fuel they produce protons and carbondioxide. The enzyme carbonic anhydrase uses water to convert most of the carbondioxide into carbonic acid. i) Describe the change of the blood carbondioxide concentration of the swimmer from Phase I to the end of Phase II (do NOT explain the other phases)? ii) How does this change of the blood carbondioxide concentration impact on the pH of the blood of the swimmer from Phase I to the end of Phase II (do NOT explain the other phases)? iii) explain the chemical reasoning behind the impact on pH from Phase I to the end of Phase II (do NOT explain the other phases). Dive Phase I 25 metres head under water Phase II 25 metres head above water Phase III
