Answer 1

2. Antiseptics are the chemicals that are used on the skin like ethanol.

Denaturation refers to the phenomenon in which proteins lose their 3-D composition due to the usage of high heat.

9. HEPA filters are the mechanical filters that help in eradicating particles and microbes from the air.

10. Alcohols are the intermediate level disinfectants that at the strength of 70 percent to 90 percent helps in disrupting cell membranes and denature proteins.

1. Gamma radiation is a kind of short-wavelength ionizing radiation.

3. Sterilization refers to the procedure in which the destruction of all kinds of microbes is done in or on an object.

4. Disinfectants are the chemicals that have an application in eliminating the majority of viruses and microbes on the inanimate objects.

5. Bisphenol A refers to a bisphenol agent that got banned by the FDA in 2016.

6. Filtration refers to a procedure in which the fluid is permitted to pass through a passage, which is developed to trap viruses and cells.

8. Cidal agent refers to the agent that eliminates microbes rather than inhibiting it.
