B

pCO2 is the partial pressure and is a measure of the amount of carbon dioxide dissolved in the blood.

Explanation:

The amount of CO2 in the blood is dependent on the rate of cellular respiration of tissues and the rate of expelling of CO2 in the lungs. Carbon anhydrase is an enzyme in the blood that helps dissolved CO2 which is important in the transport of the respiratory gas.

CO2 dissolved in blood plasma to form carbonic acid. The higher the CO2 in the blood, therefore,the lower the pH. The normal range of pCO2 in the blood is 35–45 mmHg keeping pH at a homoeostatic range of 7.4

What ion is entering the axon terminal at A, and what effect does it have?
Katena32 [7]
The ion which is entering axon terminal A is called Ca²⁺.
The effect which it has is, it causes the release of neurotransmitter from the axon terminal.

Axon terminal is termed as distal termination of telodendria of an axon. Another name for the axon terminal is synaptic boutons. Axon is a long, slender projection which is of a nerve cell. 
Their work is to conduct electrical impulses which are referred to as action potential which is a way of neurons of the cell body. Neurons use electrochemical signals and also a neurotransmitter chemical which transmits impulses from one neuron to another.
Axon terminals are being separated from neighboring neurons by a gap known as a synapse. Both the axon terminal and neuron they come from a point which is called the presynaptic neuron.
