What challenges to solute concentration and/or water gains and losses does Loggerhead turtle experience? (I am looking for you describe why it might be difficult for an animal to live in this particular environment when considering its solute and water balance.)
How does the Loggerhead turtle deal with this challenge? (You should try to describe the general process as best you can in your own words. I am looking for our understanding of how this organism meets its environmental challenges with regards to solute and water balance.)
What anatomical structures are involved in meeting this challenge? (pictures are necessary)
What physiological processes are involved in meeting this challenge? (diagrams and illustrations will be very helpful. This is where you should be very specific about what happens in the body to balance solutes and/or water.)

(1) (26 pts) In lecture we talked about how demographic forces and natural selection can affect patterns of polymorphism (i.e. genetic variation within species).
(a) Describe 2 patterns in genetic variation data (e.g. polymorphism data) that can be caused by balancing selection.
(b) List three ways a bottleneck can affect genetic variation.
(c) Describe 2 approaches one can use to distinguish bottlenecks from selection scenarios at generating the pattern in the data.

Using the blanks provided, put the steps of involved in mapping a bacterial chromosome by conjugation in chronological order using the numbers 1-6 in the blanks provided.
a. ___ ___ Cells that mated are checked for transfer of other genes from the Hfr to the F– strain.
b. ___ ___ At regular intervals, conjugation is interrupted by shearing the mating bacteria away from each other.
c. ___ ___ For each time point, cells that mated are selected—for instance, by requiring that a prototrophy or antibiotic resistance from each parent be present in one cell.
d. ___ ___ Select a donor Hfr strain and a recipient F– strain. The two strains must be different in genotype for several marker genes—for example, leu– and leu+, azir and azs.
e. ___ ___ The two strains are mixed together in a nutrient medium to allow conjugation to begin. After a few minutes, the culture is diluted to prevent new conjugations.
f. ___ ___ Order and distance of transferred genes are determined by comparing the time required for them to transfer from the Hfr to the F– strain.
