The rate at which the body temperature will return to normal if out of desperation an individual have dunk his head into the cooler to get relief from heat. Introduction: In living organisms the metabolic property of a body is always maintained by the property of homeostasis. Thermoregulation is also a process of homeostasis that regulates the changes in the temperature of internal environment. Like, when the temperature of body rises, the body’s skin heat sensors detect this change and help in lowering the body temperature by the process of sweating. Sweating, then cools down the body. The endotherms are the animals that maintain their internal body temperature by thermoregulation as sudden change in the body temperature could be fatal for an organism. Endotherms get heat from the internal metabolic activities if the outside temperature is low and cool down their bodies by process of sweating if the outside temperature is high.

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
