Summary
Biological Buffer Systems
are crucial for maintaining the
PH Balance
in
Living Organisms
, ensuring that
Biochemical Processes
function optimally despite external or internal changes in
Hydrogen Ion Concentration
. These systems typically involve
Weak Acids
and their
Conjugate bases
, which can absorb or
Release hydrogen ions
as needed to
Stabilize pH levels
.
