Fades into outer space

No clear upper boundary

Not all scientists agree that it is part of atmosphere

The phrases above are describing <u>B) exosphere layer of our atmosphere</u>

Explanation:

The exosphere is the uppermost region of Earth's atmosphere as it gradually fades into the vacuum of space.
Air in the exosphere is extremely thin - in many ways it is almost the same as the airless void of outer space.
The exosphere is perfect for placing satellites as there is very little friction and they are able to orbit fairly easily without being disrupted. Most of the molecules that exist in the exosphere end up being pulled back into earth's lower atmospheric levels by gravity.
The air in the exosphere is very thin, and is made up mostly of helium, and hydrogen.
Traces of other gases such as atomic oxygen and carbon dioxide can also be found. The upper level of the exosphere is the farthest point from earth that is still affected by earth's gravity.
The exosphere is an important atmospheric layer as it functions as a transition zone between the earth's atmosphere and outer space
It is the layer in which we can find artificial satellites that carry out constant studies of the earth and outer space. It also acts as a transit zone towards outer space.

what are the scientist doing incorrectly? what could they do to make their work in the lab safer? why is it important to follow

Andrews [41]

Answer:

What the scientist is doing incorrectly is disposing of a chemical or biological waste in the common sewer.

Explanation:

One of the most important biosecurity measures is the proper disposal of chemical and biological waste. What the shown scientist is doing incorrectly is disposing of potentially harmful substances in a normal sewer.

<h3>What could he do to make their work in the lab safer? </h3>

The main thing that must be done to maintain a safe laboratory is to perform proper disposal of chemical or biological waste, which must be placed in airtight containers and transported to a location for safe disposal.

<em>Chemical waste is usually taken to a landfill where it can be neutralized. </em>
<em>Biological waste is transported to incinerators for complete disposal. </em>

<h3>Why is it important to follow these procedures? </h3>

Following these procedures is important to avoid chemical or biological contamination of both the environment and people.

SashulF [63]

Answer:

Organelles

Explanation:

Living cells of organisms contain structures within them that perform specific functions for the cell. These structures are called ORGANELLES. Organelles are organ-like structures that are specific about their function in a cell.

Both the cells of prokaryotes and eukaryotes possess organelles, however, the organelles in eukaryotes are bounded by a membrane e.g mitochondrion, chloroplast etc. while those of prokaryotic cells are not bounded by a membrane.

The organelles inside a cell can be seen with the aid of an electron microscope. Examples of organelles are chloroplast (functions in photosynthesis), mitochondria (functions in production and storage of cellular energy), ribosome (functions in protein synthesis) etc.
