Chapter 23, Problem 9RAC
Summary Introduction
Introduction:
The partial pressure of carbon dioxide determines the pH of the body tissues as it is circulated through the blood to all the body tissues and is exchanged with oxygen. The body tissues have high partial pressure of carbon dioxide due to anaerobic respiration and low partial pressure of oxygen which helps to exchange carbon dioxide and oxygen.
