A question from TBR:
"Which of the following is least likely to act as a buffer during the formation of urine in the nephron?
A) inorganic phosphate
B) bicarbonate
C) Myoglobin
D) hemoglobin"
The answer is D. hemoglobin. I understand A and B, but do not know anything about myoglobin acting as a buffer. Can anyone help? thanks!
