what is the normal resting ph for arterial blood? for muscle? how are these values changed as a result of exhaustive sprint exercise?



Answer :

Lactic acid production is basically responsible for the change in pH.

What is pH?

The pH scale, which previously stood for "potential of hydrogen," is used to describe how acidic or basic an aqueous solution is. The pH values of acidic solutions are lower than those of basic or alkaline solutions.

The arterial blood pH is 7.4 at rest. It is 7.1 for muscle. During a strenuous sprint workout, muscle glycolysis produces a lot of lactate and H+, which lowers the pH of the muscle to less than 6.7 and the blood pH to around 7.1.

Hence, lactic acid production is basically responsible for the change in pH blood pH drops to 7.1 and muscles drop to 6.7.
