acidic a Is the pH of her blood acidic, basic, or neutral? b The normal pH of human blood is 7.35-7.45. Is Valentina's blood pH more acidic or more basic than normal? Has the number of hydrogen ions in her blood increased or decreased? Explain. Her blood is acidic I c While Valentina is recovering, a friend on social media tells her to eat only "alkaline foods," claiming eating alkaline foods will correct her pH disturbance. But Valentina is taking an A&P course, and she knows the foods we eat don't affect our blood pH due to our buffer systems. How are the buffer systems in Valentina's blood responding to her pH disturbance?
