Repeated bouts of high intensity exercise (e.g. ,interval training)can reduce arterial pH to levels as low as
A)7.3
B)7.2
C)7.1
D)None of the above answers are correct

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

During high-intensity exercise, the body produces lactic acid, leading to a decrease in pH. However, the body's buffering systems typically prevent arterial pH from dropping below about 7.35, even during intense exercise. Thus, none of the provided options (7.3, 7.2, 7.1) accurately represent the extent to which arterial pH can be reduced by high-intensity exercise, as these values suggest a more significant acidosis than what would typically occur.
