Answer:
b. cause an increase in blood pH.
Explanation:
Carbonic anhydrases are zinc-containing enzymes that catalyze the reversible reaction of conversion between CO2 and bicarbonates (carbon dioxide hydration and bicarbonate dehydration). The conversion of bicarbonate to CO2 facilitates its entry into the cell. On the other hand, the conversion of CO2 to bicarbonate helps keep the CO2 inside the cell.
This enzyme is important in all living organisms for maintenance of acid-base balance (regulates pH ). For example, carbonic anhydrases lowers pH in the stomach by producing an acid.
Meiosis produces haploid gametes, where as mitosis produces somatic cells. meiosis involves two divisions, mitosis involves only one division. mitosis produces genetically identical daughter cells, meiosis produces genetically unique daughter cells.

Answer:
C. Natural selection is the process by which organisms with more beneficial traits are more likely to survive and reproduce.
Explanation:
Natural selection is an evolutional process by which species of living organisms with stronger or more beneficial traits have higher chances of survival and reproduction. In other words, it is the process by which organisms adapt and survive.
Organisms in a population are all different in their own ways. And those with characteristics or traits better suited for the environment are more likely to survive than those without. The selection prefers more beneficial traits and not wholly on the superiority of the organism. So, the survival and reproduction chance of an organism depends on the presence of traits beneficial to the environment, which is how nature selects. And in this process, those selected will dominate the population while those rejected will be reduced or even die.
Thus, the correct answer is option C.
