During carbon dioxide transport, HCO3 diffuses from erythrocytes to plasma and in turn affects the ionic equilibrium momentarily. In order to keep the ionic balance, an equal number of C1 ions pass into the erythrocytes from plasma. This process is known as
A. Hamburger phenomenon
B. bicarbonate shift
C. transport rate
D. carbonation
