Suppose you attend a town meeting at which some experts tell the audience that they have performed a cost-benefit analysis of a proposed transit system that would probably reduce overall air pollution and fossil fuel consumption. The analysis, however, reveals that ticket prices will not cover the cost of operating the system when fuel, wages, and equipment are taken into account. As a biologist, you know that if ecosystem services had been included in the analysis, the experts might have arrived at a different answer. Why are ecosystem services rarely included in economic analyses?

A cross is made between an Hfr that is met+ thi+ pur+ and an F-that is met- thi- pur-. Interrupted mating studies show that met+ enters the recipient last, so met+ recombinants are selected on a medium containing supplements that satisfy only the pur and thi requirements. These recombinants are tested for the presence of the thi+ and pur+ alleles. The following numbers of individuals are found for each genotype:
A) Gene Order |
I |
Thi Pur Met |
II |
Pur Met Thi |
|
III |
Pur Thi Met |

B) Distance between Pur and Thi |
