Solution

The correct option is D Both A and B
Protein buffer systems depend upon proteins. Around 60 to 70 percent of the total chemical buffering of the body fluids is inside the cells, and most of this results from the intracellular proteins. The plasma proteins are also buffers but their absolute amount is small as compared to intracellular protein. Thus the correct answer is option D.
