It is called a buffer. Depending on the reaction and reactants it could be any kind of acid or base that has the right characteristics to play the role of a buffer.
A buffer solution.

A buffer
A buffer is used to resist the change in pH when acid or alkali is added to a solution. This makes it a stable environment, eg. for enzymes. The buffer stops the pH of the solution changing too drastically.
Cells resist oxygen toxicity because of the semi permeable membrane. This controls the amount of molecules and what molecules enter the cell.
The function of calcium salts is to provide hardness and strength and resist compression.
A deep sea vessel. Examples: Alivin and Jason.

A SolutionA Solutiona solution However: Mastering Biology by Pearson says that the answer is a BUFFER. Do NOT select "solution," as that is incorrect.
A substance which resists changes in pH is called a buffer.

Chemical Reactivity :)
Buffers are solutions designed to resist changes to pH levels.
No. Acetone is a polar substance while octane is nonpolar. Polar and nonpolar substances will generally resist forming a solution.
They maintain a relatively constant pH when acids or bases are added. Buffers are substances that minimize changes in the concentrations of H+ and OH- in a solution. Buffers do so by accepting hydrogen ions from the solution when they are in excess and donating hydrogen ions to the solution when they have been depleted.

Inertia is an objects ability to resist motion. I think of inertia as an object's' mass (different from weight). Newton's second law (F = mass times acceleration) describes the interaction between force and an objects ability to resist motion.
