Answer:

Staging area

Supply air lock

Hot zone.

Explanation:

The term "jargon" refers to the use of certain words or phrases that is understandable only for people within that same circle. This use of vocabulary which is peculiar to a certain trade, profession, or circle is known as jargon. In short, jargons are words that we do not use in everyday conversations.

In the given excerpt, the use of jargon is seen in the phrases like "staging area", "supply air lock", "hot zone". These terms are used to refer to the particular place that will help them get to another place, the supply air lock being the pipe that supplies air into one part of the whole set-up, and the hot zone referring to the main scene or place where the experiments are done or the virus is most prominent.

Thus, the three jargons are "staging area, supply air lock, hot zone".

Answer:

The energy conversion when a solar cell is used to light a street lamp is Option B: solar energy - electric energy - light and heat energy

Explanation:

From the 'Law of conservation' of energy, energy cannot be 'created' nor it can be destroyed. But we can convert energy from 'one form' to 'other'. The devices that transform energy from one form to another are called transducers.  

'Solar cells' also known as  the photo voltaic cells. These devices transform light energy into electrical energy directly. When these solar cells are used in a street lamp, it will convert this electrical energy into heat and light energy.
