acid-base balance
Acid-base balance refers to the regulation and control of the pH levels in the body's bodily fluids, such as the blood and other intracellular and extracellular fluids. Healthy human blood pH stands between 7.35-7.45, and maintaining this range is crucial for normal physiological processes. The balance is achieved through different biological mechanisms, including buffer systems, kidney function, and respiratory function. Disruptions in acid-base balance can lead to conditions such as acidosis or alkalosis.
