Chapter 3, Problem 4TBP
Summary Introduction
To describe: The reason why the determination of the antibiotic sensitivity of bacteria takes so long.
Introduction: Antibiotic sensitivity is the vulnerability or susceptibility of bacteria to antibiotics. Antibiotic susceptibility testing is often carried out in clinical practice. This technique is highly useful in the identification of disease-causing bacteria. For example, Staphylococcus saprophyticus.

c. Why is entrainment necessary?
d. Assuming that a flash of darkness is an effective zeitgeber, what impact on circadian
rhythms would you expect to result from an event such as the 2024 solar eclipse (assume
it was viewed from Carbondale IL, where totality occurred at about 2 pm)? Explain your

e. Finally, give a real-world example of how knowledge of circadian rhythms and
entrainment has implications for human health and wellbeing or conservation biology.
This example could be from your reading or from things discussed in class.
