A) An increase in 02 concentration in the plasma will lead to an increase in H+ concentrations.
B) An increase in temperature will lead to an increase in H+ concentration.
C) An increase in sweating will lead to a decrease in OH- and H+ concentrations.
D) An increase in breathing rate will lead to a decrease in blood CO2 and H+ concentrations.


Ans: D) An increase in breathing rate will lead to a decrease in blood CO2 and H+ concentrations.
