Insecticide resistance If the frequency of a gene for insecticide resistance is p (a constant), then its frequency in the next generation is given by the expression p(1 + s) f = 1 + sp where s is the reproductive advantage this gene has over the wild type in the presence of the insecticide. Often the selective advantage s is very small. Approximate the frequency in the next generation with a linear approxima- tion, given that s is small.
How many actin monomers within an actin filament would a myosin molecule need to ratchet in order to contract a cell by approximately 1 μm? How fast could a non-muscle cell make this contraction compared to a muscle cell if the relative rates of myosin walks on F-actin are 4.5 μm/sec and 0.04 μm/sec for myosin II and I respectively?
A patient is diagnosed to have Po cancer cells at time t = 0 and these cells grow subsequently according to P = −aP(M – P) where P(t) is the number of the cells at time t while a and M are two given positive constants. The patient will die when the number of bugs approaches infinity. Consider the case Po > M for the prognosis of the patient, i.e., find the time the patient has left to live.

A population of E. coli bacteria grows exponentially with time. You believe that the mean time between divisions is t, = 26 min, and that cell death occurs on average after tm = 200 hr. The population starts with 1000 cells. Complete parts (a) through (c). (a) Use the equation N(t) = N, e0-m)t to predict how many cells are present after 3 hours. The number of cells present after 3 hours is. (Do not round until the final answer. Then round to the nearest integer as needed.)
A Hippogriff is a magical beast that had tail of a horse. It is very similar to another magical creature, the Griffin, with the horse rear replacing the lion rear. A slightly different breed of Hippogriffs, living in the Rathlin Island—the northernmost point in Northern Ireland, was known to have a growth rate of 0.2 individuals per individual—year. From an initial population of N0, it grew to 35 individuals after 5 years. After 17 more years, the total population of hippogriffs in Rathlin Island rose to 1588 individuals. Solve for the carrying capacity of Rathlin Island and the initial population of the said specie.
Problem: At time t = 0 there are 10 person in a community of 1,000 people who has the flu. Researchers find that for this particular strain of the flu, the logistic growth constant is r = 0.603. At what time t (in days) will the entire population have had the flu based on the logistic growth model?
