HHb forms when hydrogen ions bind to haemoglobin. This can happen if there is a low blood pH due to high concentration of carbon dioxide in the blood, and it causes haemoglobin to carry less oxygen and release more of it into the tissues.

Why does blood hydrogen ion concentration decrease as the body's metabolic rate decreases?

As the body's metabolic rate decreases, the amount of CO2 that is released into the blood stream decreases as well. The reduced amount of free CO2 means that there is less interaction with H20 which in turn reduces the amount of carbonic acid in the blood stream. With less carbonic acid, there is less neutralization, then there is less free hydrogen ions in the blood stream.


How is blood alcohol content measured?

Blood alcohol content is typically measured through a breathalyzer test, which estimates BAC based on the amount of alcohol in the exhaled breath.

Why does an increase in blood volume result in a decrease in blood pressure?

It doesn't. The opposite is true. Blood pressure is proportional to blood volume. The greater the blood volume is, the higher the blood pressure will be. This is because there will be a greater volume of blood flowing through the blood vessels which means that a greater pressure will be exerted on the walls of the blood vessels, which means increased blood pressure.
