Explanation: C) Though food types are important in producing a cariogenic (low pH) environment, the frequency of the acid attack on enamel may be at least as important in creating a continuous environment for demineralization. Frequent in-between-meal snacks and drinks can maintain a low pH environment throughout the day, which shifts the demineralization/remineralization continuum toward caries formation.
