Answer:
When CO2 is breathed into the lungs, it dissolves in the water there, diffuses across the alveolar-capillary membrane, and enters the bloodstream. As it combines with water, it forms carbonic acid, making the blood acidic. So CO2 in the bloodstream lowers the blood pH.
When we respirate or breathe, our bodies convert the oxygen into CO2 so that we can breathe it out and ensure that our blood pH doesn’t drop :)
