Many claim that freshwater subsidies enable the farming of unproductive land, stimulate
local economies, and help keep food and electricity prices low. Do you think this is reason enough for governments to continue providing subsidies to farmers and cities to keep the
price of fresh water low? Why or why not?

Keeping in mind the life cycle of bacteriophages, consider the following problem: during the reproductive cycle of a temperate bacteriophage, the viral dna inserts into the bacterial chromosome where the resultant prophage behaves much like a trojan horse. it can remain quiescent, or it can become lytic and initiate a burst of progeny viruses. several operons maintain the prophage state by interacting with a repressor that keeps the lytic cycle in check. insults (ultraviolet light, for example) to the bacterial cell lead to a partial breakdown of the repressor, which in turn causes the production of enzymes involved in the lytic cycle. as stated in this simple form, would you consider this system of regulation to be operating under positive or negative control?

Suppose you are provided with an actively dividing culture of e. coli bacteria to which radioactive thymine has been added. what would happen if a cell replicates once in the presence of this radioactive base?
