(a)

Summary Introduction

To classify:

‘A surge of epinephrine initiates a flight response in a gazelle’ as either a proximate or an ultimate cause of the behavior.

Concept introduction:

Animal behavior is a very broad topic that covers everything that is done by animals. It includes movement and other activities that are performed by the animals. It is such a topic that helps to connect the two streams ecology and animal physiology to a great extent. In an animal behavior, there is involvement, and connection of many physiological systems and connections among the endocrine, muscular, nervous, reproductive and many other organ systems.

(b)

Summary Introduction

To classify:

‘Turtle uses Earth’s magnetic field lines as guides during migration’ either as a proximate or an ultimate cause of the behavior and for all proximate causes. Also, speculate about a possible ultimate cause of the behavior.

(c)

Summary Introduction

To classify:

The descriptions that ‘a small mammal ignores food sources that have low energy and that are difficult to obtain’ as either a proximate or an ultimate cause of the behavior and in case of proximate causes speculate about a possible ultimate cause of the behavior.

(d)

Summary Introduction

To classify:

The descriptions in which ‘a bird distracts its predator near its nest, which increases the chance of survival of the nestlings’ as either an ultimate or a proximate cause of the behavior and for all proximate causes give a possible cause of the behavior.

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
