Carbon dioxide reacts with water inside red blood cells to form carbonic acid, which then dissociates into hydrogen and bicarbonate ions, catalyzed by carbonic anhydrase.
El dióxido de carbono reacciona con el agua dentro de los glóbulos rojos para formar ácido carbónico, que luego se disocia en iones hidrógeno y bicarbonato, catalizado por la anhidrasa carbónica.
