rod flanders ate fourteen hotdogs yesterday. proving that his stomach can tolerate anything.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

The second sentence "Proving that his stomach can tolerate anything." is a dependent clause and should be connected to the first sentence with a comma instead of a period. Also, the period at the end of the first sentence should be a comma, and the period at the end of the second sentence should be removed as it's now part of a single sentence. Wait, actually, the second part is a sentence fragment when separated. So we should combine them or correct the punctuation. The correct way is to change the period after "yesterday" to a comma, and the period after "anything" is incorrect as the second part is a dependent clause? Wait, no, "Proving that his stomach can tolerate anything" is a participial phrase, so the correct punctuation is to replace the period after "yesterday" with a comma, and the period at the end of the second sentence is not needed. Wait, let's re - examine:

Original sentences:
"Rod Flanders ate fourteen hotdogs yesterday.
Proving that his stomach can tolerate anything."

The second "sentence" is a fragment. To correct, we can make it: "Rod Flanders ate fourteen hotdogs yesterday, proving that his stomach can tolerate anything." So we change the period after "yesterday" to a comma, and remove the period at the end of the second sentence.

Answer:

Rod Flanders ate fourteen hotdogs yesterday, proving that his stomach can tolerate anything.
