Bicarb determined by CO2 in gas phase.
CO2 is determined by CO2 in the Lungs
=> CO2 content depends on metabolism and rate of breathing.
Release H+ ions => react with bicarb-> carbonic acid -> converted to CO2 and out of the lungs. (Carbonic Acid not really change)
OH Ions release => react with Carbonic Acid => Bicarb => CO2 dissolved => Carbonic Acid Unchanged.
**Removing CO2 from blood by lungs INCREASE pH
*Removing HCO3- (Bicarb) from blood pH by kidneys lower pH
