1. Translate the typical HA gene. (Here is a link to a picture of the genetic code. Refer to this picture when doing translation.) 2. Translate the HA gene of each of the four strains.

3. For each of the four strains, describe how the protein is different from the protein produced by the typical HA gene.

4. The strain that is causing the new outbreak would have an HA protein that is different than the typical HA protein, but still functional enough to cause a case of influenza. Identify which of the four strains is likely causing the outbreak and explain why you chose it.

Use this dichotomous key for insect identification to identify the insect shown. 1. a. insect has one pair of wings. order diptera b. insect has two pairs of wings. go to #2 2. a. front wings thicker in texture than hind wings go to #3. b. front and hind wings are same texture throughout. go to #4 3. a. front wings are short order dermaptera b. front wings cover entire abdomen order coleoptera 4. a. wings with scale on all parts of their area. order lepidoptera b. wings without scales go to #5. 5. a. hind wings smaller than front wings. order ephemeroptera b. front and hind wings nearly equal in size. order odonata the insect pictured is in the order diptera. ephemeroptera. coleoptera. odonata.
