14
Process of kidneys excreting H+ into the urine and reabsorbing HCO3- into the blood from the renal tubules
1) active exchange; Na+ for H+ between the tubular cells and glomerular filtrate
2) carbonic anhydrase is an enzyme that accelerates hydration/dehydration CO2 in renal epithelial cells
15
accelerates hydration/dehydration CO2 in renal epithelial cells
carbonic anhydrase
