During cellular respiration, cells in the human body contribute to the

generation of the weak acid, H2CO3. This reaction can lower the pH of the

blood to dangerous levels. Fortunately, this acid combines with carbonate

ions to form bicarbonate ions.

This causes a shift in the reaction to the

    Left products.

    Explanation:

    Cellular respiration is a metabolic process whereby chemical energy is converted to Adenosine Triphosphate with the release of waste. During this process, H2CO3 is formed which is a weak acid. This lowers the pH of the blood and this could lead to loss of electrolytes in the body. Now, the acid combines with carbonate ions to form bicarbonates which results in a shift in the left products.
