(B) Products like "Tums" neutralize stomach acid because Tums is a base.

Explanation:

If the product neutralizes an acid, that means it must be a base. Acid + Base = Neutral. If you were to consume an product that is acidic, the stomach will end up being overly acid, which is unsafe for the body. If you were to consume a product that is neutral or "normal", the product would not do as much to neutralize the stomach acid, compared to a more basic pH. Tums has a main ingredient of calcium carbonate, CaCO3, a base. This ingredient helps regulate the pH levels for your stomach so that it does not become too acidic.

the correct answer is: b. pantala flavescens, because these organisms would have a high level of genetic variation due to sexual reproduction.  

because involves two organisms (parents) whose genetic material combines, sexual reproduction leads to genetic variation in new generations of offspring. the offspring is an unique organism, with new genome, more protected with the higher ability to adapted. this process is fundamental to evolution.
