60 Glazer Company is a small manufacturing firm with 60 employees in seven departments. When the need arises for new workers in the plant, the departmental manager interviews applicants and hires on the basis of those interviews. The manager has each new employee complete a withholding form. The manager then writes the rate of pay on the W‐4 and forwards it to payroll. When workers arrive for their shift, they pull their time cards from a holder near the door and keep the time card with them during the day to complete the start and end times of their work day. On Friday, the time cards are removed from the holder and taken to payroll by any employee who is not busy that morning. If there were any pay rate changes for the payroll period due to raises or promotions, the manager calls the payroll department to inform payroll of these rate changes. Using the rate changes and the time cards, the payroll department prepares the checks from the regular bank account of the Glazer Company. The manager of the payroll department signs the checks, and the checks are then forwarded to each department manager for distribution to employees. Required: Describe any improvements you would suggest to strengthen the payroll internal controls at Glazer.

Patient is a 10-year-old male ,good health. Felt pain in his left calf at lunchtime despite not being injured.

Ingrown hair in the location of the pain. That evening small amount of pus from the ingrown hair.

Next morning, found cellulitis on the calf and more pus. By the afternoon, the area of the cellulitis had grown significantly and the patient rushed to the medical center.

Vital signs measured, including pulse, respiration, blood pressure and temperature. All the signs were within the normal limits.

Physical examination of calf, which was red and warm to the touch but with no area of obvious fluctuance. No lymphadenopathy was observed. The physician punctured the central area of the cellulitis, near the area that the patient indicated was the ingrown hair, three times with a 20-gauge needle but no pus was drained. The patient was referred to surgery service and the surgeon gave him 2 g of ceftriaxone intramuscularly and started him on oral cephalexin. The patient returned to the medical center 48h later with obvious area of fluctuance in the centre of the cellulitis area and reported low-grade fever during the past 48 hours. It was obvious that pus is present.

3. What could be the source of the infection?

How did Tinbergen's experiment with digger wasp females demonstrate they used memory to navigate in their local environment?

1. He arranged pinecones and pinecone odor around their actual nest, moved just the pinecones to a fake nest while the female was foraging, and she flew back to the matching arrangement of pinecones, not the odor, indicating a memory of the cones' positioning.

2. He dug branching nests for females and allowed them to explore and lay larvae in the nests. He then moved the larvae in the nest to a new location while the female was foraging, and the female was still able to locate the larvae in the nest demonstrating a memory of how the nest was arranged.

3. He released mother digger wasps near beehives where prey was abundant, recaptured the mothers and brought them to nests with their larvae present, and then re-released them. They found their way back to bees hive demonstrating a memory of its location.

4. He arranged pinecones around their actual nest, rearranged the pinecones while the female was foraging, and she flew back to the same area but could not find her nest, indicating a memory of the cones' positioning and failure to recognize the new cone positioning.

Quaternary Structure

Quaternary structure represents the three-dimensional (3D) structure of one functional protein.

2. Side chains/R groups

26. List the different types of interactions that can occur at the level of quaternary protein structure.

1. Covalent bonds

2. Interactions between individual amino acid R units that are near to each other in the linear

3. sequence

4. interactions of individual amino acid R groups between different chains

5. Individual amino acid R units that are separated from each other by a large distance along the linear sequence of amino acids.

27. How many polypeptide chains are present in the Quaternary structure of a protein?

28. When proteins have multiple polypeptide chains, what are the individual polypeptide chains called?

29. Find an example of a functional protein that is composed of multiple polypeptide chains (other than the example given in class). Provide the name of the protein below.

30. Draw a representation of the protein named above (in question 29). Be sure to decipher the different subunits.

Waterways mass-produces a special connector unit that it normally sells for $4.00. It sells approximately 38,000 of these units each year. The variable costs for each unit are $2.40. A company in Canada that has been unable to produce enough of a similar connector to meet customer demand would like to buy 15,900 of these units at $2.70 per unit. The production of these units is near full capacity at Waterways, so to accept the offer from the Canadian company would require temporarily adding another shift to its production line. To do this would increase variable manufacturing costs by $0.30 per unit. However, variable selling costs would be reduced by $0.20 a unit.

An irrigation company has asked for a special order of 1,800 of the connectors. To meet this special order, Waterways would not need an additional shift, and the irrigation company is willing to pay $3.20 per unit.

What are the consequences of Waterways agreeing to provide the 15,900 units to the Canadian company? Would this be a wise “special order” to accept?
Should Waterways accept the special order from the irrigation company?
What would be the consequences of accepting both special orders?
