(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.

increase soil erosion                                             reduce soil erosion

cattle grazing                                                         hydroseeding

deforestation                                                         contour plowing

                                                                                planting vegetation

plant roots basically hold the top soil

together and stop soil erosion because

in such situation top soil is not removed

during flood but cattle grazing causes

soil erosion because cattle consume the

grasses and herbs and top soil is exposed.

same situation occurs because of

deforestation, the trees and plants are cut

down to expose top soil which causes soil

erosion
