The reason why the changing conditions challenge the survival of the organisms living in the estuaries experiencing both freshwater and saltwater conditions each day with the rising and falling of tides. Concept introduction: The species of plants, fishes and animals living in the saline conditions near the estuary adapt to the changing conditions of the climate. The plants have aerated roots for removing the salts and for the intake of gas for the metabolism inside plant cells. The fishes migrate from this region, due to the change in the climate. The sea organisms like blue crab and oyster migrate during the breeding season and the laying of eggs to the other regions to avoid the excessive salty conditions in estuaries.

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
