Mycocepurus ant and social parasite Figure. A queen of the social parasite Mycocepurus castrator standing on the host queen's back. The photograph was taken in a laboratory nest, set up at So Paulo State University in Rio Claro, Brazil in October 2008. The photograph was taken by Scott Solomon. - Mycocepurus goeldii is a fungus-growing ant species that was found to host a parasitic ant species called Mycocepurus castrator in southern Brazil - M. castrator was only found within nests of its host species and this location was in the center of the range of its host species M. goeldii - These two species are morphologically similar but distinct by M. castrator being smaller and more shiny than M. goeldii - Based on a molecular phylogeny it was shown that the parasite and host species are distinct lineages and reproductively isolated, but there is evidence of incomplete lineage sorting - Also, it seems like the parasite originated from within the range of the host species and the host and parasite are each others' closest relatives - Based on the different lifestyles of the species, it is likely they will have different evolutionary tendencies and fates isolated, but there is evidence of incomplete lineage sorting - Also, it seems like the parasite originated from within the range of the host species and the host and parasite are each others' closest relatives - Based on the different lifestyles of the species, it is likely they will have different evolutionary tendencies and fates.

Young animals grow up If the zygote can grow in and interact with a suitable environment, it contains all the information required to create a new organism. It stands to reason that some aspects of embryology must be considered when studying the development of behaviour. For instance, the way the nervous system's fundamental structure is built, but we must go much further than this. Young animals grow up It is entirely possible to argue that in some animals, behavioural development continues throughout life. Long after an animal is independent, its behaviour may still change. Learning could therefore be seen as a form of development, and young animals occasionally learn a lot as they grow. But in this section, we'll focus on other behavioural changes that frequently occur early in life, often quickly and dramatically. It is important to understand that young animals must always be fully functional creatures capable of acting appropriately in their own worlds. They cannot simply be incomplete creatures or inadequate stages on the path to adulthood. Some animals are protected during their early development by an eggshell or uterus or by watchful parents, but others are free-living and must care for themselves completely. Young animals may develop into miniature adults as they grow in size over time, but in order to keep up, their behavioural responses must also adapt. Although young cuttlefish (Sepia) start out and continue to be carnivores, at first, they can only kill tiny crustacea that are disregarded as prey once the cuttlefish has grown. As they grow closer to adult size, they move on to food that is bigger and bigger, which requires a change in the behaviour patterns used to find and catch prey. Even more drastic behavioural and morphological changes may occur in some cases because some young animals live entirely different lives than do adults. Tadpoles are herbivores that swim and breathe like fish before changing into land-dwelling carnivorous frogs or toads. Eristalis tenax, an aquatic filter-feeding rat-tailed maggot that breathes through a long snorkel tube at its back, transforms into a flower-feeding hoverfly (see Fig. 2). Young and adult require almost entirely different behavioural repertoires for these life histories. Rat-tailed maggot | Flower-feeding hoverfly These alterations mean that development frequently has to produce patterns that only function for a portion of an animal's life before disappearing. The specific coordinated movements that cockroaches use to emerge from their individual eggshells as well as the protective case that bundles a group of eggs together were both described by Provine in 1976. These movements, which are only observed on this one occasion, consist of a series of reversed waves of contraction along the body from the tail to the head. They appear at the exact right time, at the end of the egg stage's development, and are used to propel the young cockroach nymph into the following growth

12.16 In each parts (a)-(c), we have given the likely range for the observed value of a sample proportion. Based on the given range, identify the educated guess that should be used for the observed value of p to calculate the required sample size for a prescribed confidence level and margin of error. a. 0.4 to 0.7 b. 0.7 or greater c. 0.7 or less d. In each parts (a)-(c), which observed values of the sample proportion will yield a larger margin of error than the one specified if the educated guess is used for the sample size computation? Solution I have not heard of this term educated guess in thiscontext. There is a term, conservative estimate, which would be thenumber that you enter into the SD formula for proportions so thatthe SD is maximized. SD = [p(1-p)] So the conservative estimate for the SD is to let p =0.5. The sample size formula is: z1-/2 = / SE(phat) whichimplies below n = (z1-/2)2p(1-p) /2 In part a) p = 0.5. In part b) p = 0.7. In part c) p = 0.5. By using these numbers, we would get an upper bound in findingthe sample size calculation. However, my guess of the definition of an educatedguess is probably not right, because part d asks for what values ofthe sample proporiton will yield a larger margin or error. I\'musing the values of p that would guarantee the largest marginof error. Send me a PM for post a clarification asto the definition of an educated guess. Thanks, Mike.

12.1 You are involved in the planning process for a fi rm that is expected to have a large increase in sales next year. Which type of fi rm would benefi t the most from that sales increase: a fi rm with low fi xed costs and high variable costs or a fi rm with high fi xed costs and low variable costs? Solution When sales will increase the firm with having less variable cost and high fixed cost will gain more since high fixed cost will be recovered first then high sales will enhance profit as the variable cost is lower. Ans: The firm benefit the most = a fi rm with high fi xed costs and low variable costs.

12....... In the economy of UNAM in 2012 exports were $35, GDP was $233, imports were $46, government spending was $55 and consumption was $77. What was UNAM\'s investment in 2012? Solution Ans) Since, GDP = C + I + G +(Ex - Im) where, GDP is the Gross Domestic Product (Ex-Im)= Net exports = (Exports - imports) C = total spending by consumers I = is total Investment (spending on goods and services) by business G = total spending by Government Now we have, GDP = C + I + G +(Ex - Im) Thus, $233= $77+ I + $46 + ( $35 - $46) I = $233-$77-$46 - $35 + $46 I = $121.

12 identical blackboards are distributed among 5 schools. Find the probability that the first school receives 2 blackboards and each of the other 4 schools has to receive at least 1 blackboard. Solution total no of ways of distributin 12 identical objects among 5 peolpe is (12+5-1)C12= 16C12. also after giving 2 blackboard to 1st school and giving 1 each to the left four schools we are left with 6 blackboards. now these 6 blackboards are to be distributed among the rest 4 schools. so number of ways of doing this is (6+4-1)C6=9C6. so the prob is 9C6/16C12.

11.Which of the following is False? a.Bonds backed by an insurance company have zero credit and interest rate risks. b.Counterparty risk is the risk that the counterparty will be unable to live up to its contractual obligations. c.In an OTC call option contract there is considerable concern with counterparty risk because the issuer of the call option may not deliver payments in case of loss. d.Investors in coupon bonds face a reinvestment risk. e.Reinvestment risk for callable bonds is greater than for non-callable bonds, ceteris paribus. Solution The following statement is false: Bonds backed by an insurance company have zero credit and interest rate risks. Insurance companies are in the business of assuming risk for individuals and institutions. They manage those risks by diversifying over a large number of policies, perils and geographic regions. Therefore, it is wrong if we say that there is zero credit and interest rate risks in the Bonds backed by an insurance company..

12-5How can a PERT network be used to increase functional ability to relate to the total program? Solution PERT or program evaluation review technique, is a project management tool. This tool is used to schedule, organize and co-ordinate tasks within a project. A PERT network chart graphically illustrates a project as a network diagram. The illustration clearly points out the events in the project linked by representing tasks. If a task has to be completed in sequence, it is called dependent tasks. If projects are not dependent, but can be completed simultaneously, they are called concurrent tasks. Thus PERT creates a clarity about the project, thus increasing efficiency and productivity. For each activity, early start or late start or slack is identified. PERT helps in the identification of the critical path. Moreoever, the large project data can be simply and easily presented in diagram form. All these contributes to increasing functional ability related to the total program..

11.6 The null hypothesis for ANOVA posits no difference among population means, as in other hypothesis tests, but the research hypothesis in this case is a bit different. Why? Solution The research hypothesis states that at least two of the means differ, but it does not indicate which ones. Post-hoc tests can then be used to determine more in the case you reject the null hypothesis in the initial ANOVA. In fact the research hypothesis for ANOVA doesn.

11.5. What is meant by a reduced form of (regression) equation? What is it use? 11.16. Consider the following two-equation model: Y1t = A1 + A2Y2t + A3X1t + u1t Y2t = B1 + B2Y1t + B3X2t + u2t Where the Y Solution Q.11.5. In regession analysis, one tries to find out relationships between two or more variables where some variables are endogenous and others are exogenous variables. Variables are endogenpus when there a correlation exists between the variable and error term. Whereas, exogenous variables are external variables. When an regression model/equations is find out through statistical measure and any smaller set of equation is formed from the model, it is known as reduced firms of equation. In other words, the reduced form of a system of equations is the result of solving the system for the endogenous variables. The reduced forms of equations are used to find out the value of endogenous variables along with other variables..
