These pictures compare the numbers of prairie dogs in an area at two different times. The picture on the right shows the area 10 years after the
picture on the left.
Which statement best explains the change over the 10-year period?
A. Both the death rate and the emigration rate decreased.
B. The immigration rate remained steady, and the birthrate increased.
C. Both the emigration rate and the death rate increased.
D. The birthrate increased, and the emigration rate remained steady.

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?

The graph below compares the rates of reaction of a burning candle and an exploding firework. comparing chemical reactions what can you conclude from the graph? the reaction that causes a firework to explode requires less energy to start, and occurs more rapidly than the reaction that causes a candle to burn. the reaction that causes a firework to explode requires less energy to start, and occurs less rapidly than the reaction that causes a candle to burn. the reaction that causes a firework to explode requires more energy to start, and occurs less rapidly than the reaction that causes a candle to burn. the reaction that causes a firework to explode requires more energy to start, and occurs more rapidly than the reaction that causes a candle to burn. mark this and return

Describe your dna model. which part do the straws represent? the pushpins? the paper clips and the black dots you made with the marker?
