1. What is the rate of population growth when N1=K1−α∗N2 ?
2. What is alpha? So what does α∗N2 signify?
3. Explain in words (one sentence) what it means that: dN2/dt=0 when N2=K2−β∗N1

You are given 2 pure breeding stocks of a certain plant. One has white flowers, and the other has purple flowers.
1. when these two are bred together, all of the resulting plants have purple flowers. Explain this result in terms of dominance. Choose symbols (letters) to represent the alleles of the gene involved, and use them to show the genotype of each parent and of the hybrid offspring.
2. what result (ratio of phenotypes) do you expect to see if you allow the offspring produced in #1 to self -hybridize? Draw a punnett square to explain why these resuts are obtained.

Expression of genes is controlled in response to the concentration of metabolites and signaling molecules within cells. One type of control mechanism depends on the ability of some mRNA molecules to form special secondary structures that are capable of directly binding to small molecules. These structures are called riboswitches and the molecules they bind to are their ligands. Binding of an mRNA to its appropriate ligand results in a conformational change in the mRNA, and as a consequence, the transcription of this mRNA may be prematurely terminated or its translation may be inhibited. By sensing metabolite concentrations, riboswitches participate in feedback circuits. When the ligand is present at high concentrations, the riboswitch inhibits the expression of genes needed to replenish this ligand. Scientists are employing a wide range of bioinformatics, genetics, and biochemical techniques to discover, study and use riboswitches for development of novel antibiotics and therapeutics.
