Describe the expected results for your bacterium (i.e. relative amount of growth compared to control; color changes in bacteria and/or agar, presence of gas, clear zones, etc.)
Analysis/Result: Explain what these results indicate. (i.e. This organism is Gram positive or Gram negative and ferments lactose, maybe a member of Enterobacteriaceae)

(Bonds) A bond with a $1,000 par, 6 years to maturity, a coupon rate of 6%, and annual payments has a yield to maturity of 3.8%. What will be the percentage change in the bond price if the yield changes instantaneously to 5.3%? (If your answer is, e.g., -1.123%, enter it as -1.123. If the sign of the price change is incorrect, no credit will be given.)

Starting from a long run equilibrium show the short run impact of COVID 19 (short term temporary supply shock) on output and price level graphically and explain the mechanism of these changes. Suppose in the initial long run steady state equilibrium output is 22 trillion dollars and the price level is 100.

“Protein A” is phosphorylated at one amino acid by a kinase, “protein B”, and dephosphorylated by a phosphatase, “protein C”.
You have purified all three of these proteins and want to determine the structural changes that occur when protein A is phosphorylated or dephosphorylated. Explain in detail how you would go about designing and conducting this investigation.
