The pH levels of the body can be regulated through

Answer
A
sweating
B
buffers.
C
temperature changes.
D
insulin secretion.

Explanation

Buffers help regulate pH by accepting or releasing hydrogen ions, which limits sudden changes in acidity. The body uses buffer systems, such as bicarbonate, to keep its fluids within a narrow pH range. Sweating, temperature changes, and insulin secretion do not directly provide this buffering action.
