The correct answer to this question is letter B.its ability to form endospores in harsh conditions
The bacterium Bacillus anthracis, which causes anthrax, has been developed as a biological warfare agent. The ability that could have led to this is that its ability to form endospores in harsh conditions
Anthrax usually form endospores in non-bacteria friendly environments, meaning they could get into places that would otherwise be hygienic and infect individuals.
A balance that performs in an enclosed compartment with no air currents to disturb is called an analytical balance.
Analytical balances are instruments used for precise and determination of mass of matter. They are accurate and very precise instruments. They require a draft-free location on a solid bench that is free of vibrations.
Analytical balances of today are digital and have built in calibration weights to maintain accuracy. Older versions usually require to be manually calibrated using specific standard weights.
