i got 10/11 correct. The one incorrect for me was question 9 pertaining to antacid. Never heard of antacid before as a brainlet.
>these percentages reflect only the 4,464 adults that took part in the national survey; online quiz results are not included in the sample.
If that wasn't inserted on the results page I sincerely thought groups were getting questions wrong on purpose then claiming that they are black to bring the black percent correct down, However that is not the case. I am going to look away from these statistics.

Booting up is just loading the OS. Theres no way you'd need virtual memory because you ran out of ram while simply loading the OS. I doubt any system is even designed to do this as they all have minimum requirements

Fuck idk, I'm neither a bio major nor was what she told us actually relevant to any class material. The only reason I didn't pick base was because I remembered that, and I thought I could trust her more than my own knowledge of basic chem. Although, now I remember her telling us that bacteriophages are harmful to the body when they're actually safe, so idk.

I just checked on Wikipedia, and your teacher was either wrong or explained very badly.
The component that reduce the stomach acidity in an antacid is simply an alkaline ion, i.e. a base. There may be other acids in the drug but they have other purposes, for example to make an effervescent, or to protect the stomach.
