Summary Introduction

To explain:

The mechanism by which kidneys assist in the maintenance of the pH level of the blood.

Introduction:

The transport of hydrogen and bicarbonate ions across the membrane channels causes the changes in the pH values. The blood has an acidic environment if the concentration of the hydrogen ions is high in the blood cells present in the capillary network of the blood vessels.

The concentration of the hydrogen ions is balanced by the ammonium ions in the blood. The hydrogen ions concentration is balanced by the levels of the bicarbonate ions and phosphate ions in the tubules of the nephrons and red blood cells in the capillaries.
