What must be regulated in order to maintain carbon dioxide levels and proper blood ph?

• Correct Answer: breathing rate
• blood toxin levels
• oxygen rate
• Heart rate

Explanation: Blood pH may become unbalanced if the rate of breathing is too fast or too slow. When breathing is too fast, blood contains too little carbon dioxide and becomes too basic. When breathing is too slow, blood contains too much carbon dioxide and becomes too acidic. Clearly, to maintain proper blood pH, the rate of breathing must be regulated.
