The flashlight fish has an organ under its eye that emits light, which startles predators, attracts prey, and allows the fish to communicate with other fish. some species can rotate the organ, so the light appears to flash on and off. the light is actually emitted by bacteria that live in the organ in a mutualistic relationship with the fish. (the bacteria receive nutrients from the fish.) the bacteria must multiply until they reach a certain density in the organ, at which point they all begin emitting light at the same time. there is a group of six or so genes, called lux genes, whose gene products are necessary for light formation. given that these bacterial genes are regulated together, propose a hypothesis for how the genes are organized and regulated.

Aloaded platform of total mass 500 kg is supported by a dashpot and by a set of springs of effective stiffness 72 kn/m. it is observed that when the platform is depressed through a distance x = 12.5 cm below its equilibrium position and then released without any initial velocity; it reaches its equilibrium position in the shortest possible time without overshoot. find the position and velocity of the loaded platform 0.10 sec. after its release. if a further load of 400 kg is added to the platform, find, i) the frequency of damped vibrations, and i) the amplitude of vibration after 2 complete oscillations, given that the initial amplitude is 15 cm.
