Answer:

Endospores

Explanation:

Autoclaving is a sterilization method that involves the use of high temperature and pressure.  In medical application, it is used for the sterilization of medical equipment and also used for vulcanizing rubber and curing coatings in the chemical industry.

Autoclaving process destroys living cells as well as bacterial endospores. Endospores are tough non reproductive structures produced by some bacteria. They have the ability to be dormant, hence can enable bacteria to survive environmental stress.

Answer: Endospores.

Explanation:

Autoclaving is a sterilization method that is used to sterilize nutrient media,laboratory materials and uses high pressure to kill infectious agents and denature protein. It works base on the fact that the boiling point of water increases under high pressure. Autoclaving destroys living cells and endospores of bacteria. The endospores of bacteria are hard or tough in reproductive part.

What are three ways a synthetic polymers affect the environment
nadezda [96]
There are two types of polymers, which are natural and synthetic. Although natural polymers do not affect the environment, synthetic polymers do.Synthetic polymers are anything that is manufactured or influenced by humans. Due to this, these types of polymers release reactants which are hazardous; both to humans and the environment.Synthetic polymers, which include plastics, rubber, How do polymers effect the environment?adhesives, and Styrofoam cannot be degraded into the environment, causing a buildup of these chemicals all at once, causing a release of any "excess" chemicals into the environment.From there on, polymers create garbage loads, and chemical reactants that effect the environment, and spread around. Therefore effecting anything grown or eaten around it. This could call chemical poisoning to the greenery, animals, and living organisms around it. Not all polymers are bad. In fact humans are made up of polymers. But polymers from sources such as crude oil synthesized into plastics release toxins as they break down. When you burn plastics synthesized from crude oil feedstock, carbon dioxide and dioxins can be released into the air if smoke is not properly <span>What are the bad effects of polymers on your environment?filtered as they are in high quality waste-to-energy incinerators.

Therefore plastics are banned in some areas.
