Hi everyone,
On the bio section of AAMC #5, for first question in the lung passage (passage 5), I understand the answer, but why does the explanation say venous blood have lower pH...Isn't it that the pulmonary artery has the lower pH due to higher CO2 content and the pulmonary vein leaving the lung ends up with higher O2, lower CO2, and higher pH?
Thanks.
