An important one of these in human blood is carbonic acid, which helps prevent alkalosis. Thses are crucial to biological function in most animals, and generally contain a salt and either a weak acid or base. Their effectiveness can be calculated through the use of an ICE chart or by using the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation. For ten points, identify these substances whose name indicates that they resist changes pH despite addition of hydroxide ions or protons.
