This might cause indigestion or slow digestion.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The normal nature of stomach is acidic due to the presence of HCL.  his acidic pH is necessary to facilitate the process of digestion. An antacid is usually consumed when the acidic level of the stomach exceeds beyond normal causing symptoms of the condition called acidity.

When we take antacids without any reason it will work like a buffer that alters the pH of a medium and reduce the normal acidic level in the stomach. Normal digestion cannot take place at this new pH. If we take any food after that indigestion will be the result.

So taking a hamburger after consuming antacid will cause indigestion or slow digestion.

Whales are closely related to hoofed mammals with an even number of toes, such as horse, because they evolved from them. Before whales were what we know them as today, they were relatively similar to horses. They used the water to flee from predators, and they evolved slowly to heighten their swimming ability, eventually becoming modern day whales. Fish have always been aquatic animals that have gills. Whales cannot breathe underwater, so they take in oxygen the same way a horse does. Also, both horses and whales are mammals that give birth to their offspring and are warm-blooded. Fish lay eggs and are cold-blooded.

Hope this helped! Please give brainliest! :)
