Hydrogen ion secretion leads to bicarbonate ions reabsorption in order to maintain proper blood ph balance. hydrogen ion secretion leads to bicarbonate ions reabsorption in order to maintain proper blood ph balance. a.trueb. false

True

Explanation:

Carbon dioxide is transported by the blood in the dissolved form. carbonic anhydrase is the enzyme which is a metalloenzyme having zinc at active site converts carbon dioxide into carbonic acid which dissolves in the blood.

Thus,  

H₂O (l) + CO₂ (g) ⇔ H⁺(aq) + HCO₃²⁻(aq)

The kidneys in the body help to control the acid base balance. The hydrogen ion secretion in the body leads to the generation and reabsorption of the bicarbonate ions to form carbon dioxide in order to nullify the effect of the acid generated and thus the pH of the blood is maintained.

i believe the answer is c. "baking" is the gerund, while "baking blueberry muffins" would be the gerund phrase. hope this ! : )
