Answer:

BSL or the biological safety levels refers to an array of protections consigned to autoclave-associated activities, which occurs in specific biological labs. The BSL-3 refers to the biosafety level that generally comprises work on microbes, which are either exotic or indigenous and can result in potentially or extreme lethal disease via inhalation. The examples of microorganisms that are handled in BSL=3 comprises West Nile virus, yellow fever, and the bacteria, which leads to tuberculosis.

Answer:

Explanation:

  • The microbes would be toxic or have potential to cause a lethal disease.
  • Highly infectious, like Mycobacterium tuberculosis which is readily and highly transmitted by inhalation and aerosol means.
  • Can contaminate the environment.
  • The treatment or prophylactic measures are expensive and inefficient.

Which methods is utilized by eukaryotes to control their gene expression that is different from the type of control found in bac
Damm [24]

Answer:

Method which is utilized by eukaryotes to control their gene expression that is different from the type of control found in bacteria is control of both RNA splicing and chromatin remodeling.

Explanation:

There is a difference in the gene expression of the prokaryotes and eukaryotes. In prokaryotes, transcription and translation occur simultaneously in the cytoplasm, and gene regulation occurs at the transcriptional level. In eukaryotes gene expression is regulated during transcription and RNA processing, which take place in the nucleus, and during protein translation, which takes place in the cytoplasm.

Prokaryotic cells can only regulate gene expression by controlling the amount of transcription. As eukaryotic cells evolved, the complexity of the control of gene expression increased. For example, with the evolution of eukaryotic cells came compartmentalization of important cellular components and cellular processes. A nuclear region that contains the DNA was formed. Transcription and translation were physically separated into two different cellular compartments. It therefore became possible to control gene expression by regulating transcription in the nucleus, and also by controlling the RNA levels and protein translation present outside the nucleus.

How do meteorologists indicate different types of weather fronts on a weather map?
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

A stationary front is depicted by an alternating red and blue line with a triangle on the blue portion and half-moon on the opposite side of the red portion of the line. A cold front (or warm front) that stops moving becomes a stationary front.
