Match the term bradycardia with the most closely related descriptions given below: Vein to the left atrium Covers outer surface of the heart Supplies blood to heart muscle Lines inner surface of fibrous pericardium Slow heart rate Functional syncytium Muscular wall of the heart Relaxation phase of the cardiac cycle Vein to the right atrium Contraction phase of the cardiac cycle Introduction: A continuous contraction as well as the relaxation of the heart chambers give rise to the heartbeat, which can be recorded as pulse rate. The normal pulse rate ranges in between 50-90 bpm (beats per minute). This range may vary depending on the physical condition of the body. The condition that results in an abnormal heartbeat is known as arrhythmia.

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
