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.

Refrigerant-134a enters the compressor of a refrigerator as superheated vapor at 0.14 mpa and -10°c at a rate of 0.05 ka/s and leaves at 0.8 mpa and 50°c. the refrigerant is cooied in the condenser to 0.72 mpa and 26'c. it is then throttled to 0.15 mpa. sketch the t-s diagram for the system and evaluate: 6) the rate of heat removai from the refrigerated space (kw), it) the power input to the compressor (kw), ii) the isentropic efficiency of the compressor (%), and iv) the cop of the refrigerator.
