economy to an extent that can only be speculative. What is known is that the impact will be nothing short of catastrophic regarding both the earth and economy. In much of the previous century, oil was largely viewed worldwide as an economic asset and ever-expanding tool for increasing mobility needs and is today the primary cause of air pollution through the medium of oil-burning automobile engines. The dependence on oil now threatens many national economies, their security and the environment as well. Not only can the world not endure fossil fuels being pumped into the atmosphere at the current rate for the next 30 years, most experts agree that in 30 years, the world’s supply of oil will be largely depleted. Only by quickly implementing alternative sources of automobile fuel and electricity on a large scale can this looming disaster be averted. Hybrid cars seem to provide at least a temporary answer until better technologies are developed. Because they burn less oil, hybrid cars are considered a step in the right direction. This discussion will review many aspects of the hybrid car including an explanation of what a hybrid car is and how they save fuel thereby emitting fewer pollutants, their popularity and their risks.

In An Inconvenient Truth, former Vice-President Al Gore demonstrates with clever use of computer graphics the extent to which the U.S. is, by far, the unenviable world leader in fossil fuel emissions. His plea to change energy use habits is good advice for everyone and every nation but is unambiguously directed at an American audience. “First, we need to make major changes in our preferences and habits concerning our personal cars, housing patterns, and consumption patterns. This is true especially in the U. S. because our nation consumes the lion’s share of the world’s fossil fuels to sustain our rich standard of living” (“An

Fruit flies normally have dull red eyes, but geneticists have identified quite a few genes which cause them to have different colored eyes. The very first of these discovered was a gene with a recessive allele for white eyes. This gene isXlinked.Xlinkage works the same in fruit flies as it does in mammals. We’ll use the symbolsW(dominant red eyes) andw(recessive white eyes) for these two alleles.

  1. You mate a red eyed female fly (whose male parent had white eyes) to a male with red eyes. What are the genotypes of these two flies? Enter them on your answer sheet.
  2. Fruit flies have hundreds of offspring at a time. When you look at the offspring from this mating, what phenotypic ratio do you expect to find? Don’t forget that you are looking at the effects of anXlinked gene, and don’t forget toinclude your workin the space provided. Your ratio must, of course, be properly expressed.
