Question

read the excerpt from the hot zone. they closed up their suits and lumbered across the staging area to a large air - lock door. this was a supply air lock. it did not lead into the hot zone. it led to the outside world. they opened it. on the floor of the air lock sat the seven garbage bags. which phrases are examples of jargon? select three options. staging area supply air lock hot zone outside world garbage bags

Explanation:

Jargon refers to specialized vocabulary used in a particular field (like scientific/technical fields here, related to handling hazardous areas as in The Hot Zone). "staging area" (a specialized area in such operations), "supply air lock" (a technical component for air management in controlled environments), and "hot zone" (a term for a contaminated/hazardous area) are jargon. "outside world" and "garbage bags" are common terms, not jargon.

Answer:

A. staging area, B. supply air lock, C. hot zone
