bicarbonate ions in blood can absorb hydrogen ions, keeping pH balanced. bicarbonate is acting as a ________  in blood?
Veseljchak [2.6K]
Buffer is an aqueous solution that resists changes in pH when acids or bases are added to it. A buffer solution is typically composed of a weak acid and its conjugate base. There are three major buffer systems that are responsible for regulating blood pH: the bicarbonate buffer system, the phosphate buffer system, and the plasma protein buffer system. Of the three buffer systems, the bicarbonate buffer system is arguably the most important as it is the only one that is coupled to the respiratory system

As discussed in Investigating Life 15.1, why might bioluminescence be an advantage for some species of dinoflagellates?
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

Bioluminescence is the phenomenon which is seen in the dinoflagellates which is very common. It is caused due to chemical reactions that takes place inside the organism.

There is an influx of protons in the cell which drops the pH of the cell. It is the oxidation of luciferin which produces the glow.

This phenomenon acts as a shock for the predator because it is in the form of flash for less than 20 microseconds.This flash reduces the number of dinoflagellates which is being eaten by the predator.
