ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -Bicarbonate, phosphates, and proteins work as a chemical buffer in our body fluids. They absorb extra hydrogen ions or extra hydroxyl ions released from the things we make or eat.

Detailed explanation-2: -Acid: A solution that has an excess of H+ ions. It comes from the Latin word acidus that means “sharp” or “sour".

Detailed explanation-3: -Buffers are solutions that contain a weak acid and its a conjugate base; as such, they can absorb excess H+ ions or OH–ions, thereby maintaining an overall steady pH in the solution.

Detailed explanation-4: -Buffer Solution is a water solvent based solution which consists of a mixture containing a weak acid and the conjugate base of the weak acid, or a weak base and the conjugate acid of the weak base. They resist a change in pH upon dilution or upon the addition of small amounts of acid/alkali to them.

Detailed explanation-5: -Base: A solution that has an excess of OH-ions. Another word for base is alkali.
