Q. |
The pH of human blood is - |
A. | 7.2 |
B. | 7.8 |
C. | 6.6 |
D. | 7.4 |
Answer» D. 7.4 | |
Explanation: Different fluids in the human body generally have a delicate range of acid- alkaline balance they maintain for optimal functioning. Human blood has a normal pH of about 7.41. The pH of urine has a wider range. Normal ranges for urine pH are from 4.5 to 8. When the pH levels of blood or other key bodily fluids fall out of optimal pH range due to adverse metabolic or respiratory conditions, the human body goes through a variety of adjustments to try to correct the acid or alkaline imbalance. If the body is too alkaline, a condition called alkalosis results. Conversely, an overly acid condition results in acidosis. |
