The reason why the populations of organisms are typically well adapted to their environment. Concept Introduction: Population includes the number of species of the same organisms inhabiting a specific place in an ecosystem. The temperature, pressure, humidity, availability of food and minerals are a specific place help in the survival of the species under these conditions which are different from the conditions prevalent in the other ecosystems. The species of organisms in specific habitats have a special feature which makes them invisible in the surroundings by camouflaging them which helps them in catching prey.

The diagram below illustrates a quorum sensing pathway from Staphylococcus aureus. Please answer the following questions. 1. Autoinduction is part of the quorum sensing system. Which promoter (P2 or P3) is critical for autoinduction? 2)This staphylococcus aureus grows on human wounds, causing severe infections. You would like to start a clinical trial to treat these wound infections. Please describe: a) What molecule do you recommend for the trial. Why? b) Your trial requires that Staphylococcus aureus be isolated from the wound and submitted to genome sequencing before admittance. Why? What are you testing for? 3) If a mutation arises where the Promoter P3 is constitutively active, how would that influence sensitivity to AIP? Please explain your rationale. 4) This pathway is sensitive to bacterial cell density. Describe two separate mutation that would render the pathway active independent of cell density. Briefly explain your rationale. Mutation 1 Mutation 2
