Each buffer will only be of sufficient capacity within a pH interval of pKa+1 > pH > pKa-1 so the optimal buffer pH-range is maximum 2 units.
- After the composition: phosphates, acetates - After the range of pH: a great variety of buffers exist.
because it is alkaline in nature
Solutions containing these mixtures are called buffers.
humans use bicarbonate as a PH buffer in the bloodBuffering of course!
Yes.
The answer is a buffer or buffers.
- After the composition: phosphates, acetates - After the range of pH: a great variety of buffers exist.
Buffers are used to maintain the pH constant.

These substances are called buffers.
You think to chemical buffers.
See this link for a list of buffers.
Buffers "slow" changes in pH (they make it difficult to change pH), and for animals a constant pH (internally) is critical to survival. (A change in pH of 1 - in either direction - will kill you.)

to maintain the pH
Buffers help maintain homeostasis by neutralizing acids and bases
