None is correct
By what factor does carbonic anhydrase speed up the formation of carbonic acid?
Depends on the concentration of enzyme and substrate you'll have to look at the lab and do some math
Acid formed by mixing water with carbon dioxide?
H2CO3, or carbonic acid, can be formed by dissolving carbon dioxide (CO2) in water (H2O). When carbon dioxide is dissolved in water, carbonic acid "exists in equilibrium" with the water and carbon dioxide; meaning that the carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen atoms involved tend to move around and keep equal concentrations of gas/water mixture and carbonic acid.
What chemical assists in the formation of the bicarbonate ions from carbon dioxide and water?
I suppose that you think to carbonic anhydrase.

What reactions with water lead to the formation of these caves?
Rain water + atmospheric CO2 gives Carbonic Acid - very weak but over time able to dissolve limestone.
Why are the reactions of acids with carbonates and hydrogen carbonates called neautralisation reactions?
They are called this because carbonates and bicarbonates are bases, and will except a hydrogen ion. This will result in the formation of carbonic acid (H2CO3) which spontaneously breaks down into water and carbon dioxide.
How does the formation of stalactite related to the action of acids on calcium carbonate?
The acid is Carbonic Acid, formed by Carbon Dioxide from the atmosphere dissolving into rain-water, and though very weak capable of dissolving limestone whose main constituent is calcium Carbonate. The stalactites are of calcite, crystallised calcium carbonate precipitated from that solution.
Is carbonic acid an acid that forms caves?
Yes. Carbonic acid is one of the main factors in the formation of limestone caves.
