| Without the enzyme carbonic anhydrase the dehydration and hydration of carbon dioxide is a rather slow reaction. |
| Finally, if ammonium carbonate is placed in water, the weak base ammonium carbonate and weak acid carbonic acid are produced. |
| Caverns throughout the world are formed by the action of atmospheric carbonic acid on limestone to form the more soluble calcium bicarbonate. |
| It is notable, therefore, that the functional expression of CA in heart is modest, enhancing the speed of carbonic buffering by only 2.5-fold. |
| Two intracellular enzymes that may support active ion transport across crustacean gills are carbonic anhydrase and arginine kinase. |
| Limited evidence has been presented that elevated CO2 inhibits the transcription of genes coding for carbonic anhydrase and Rubisco activase. |
