In addition to tracking changes in the wolf population, scientists were interested in how the wolves would affect other parts of the Yellowstone ecosystem. In particular, they were interested in changes to the population of elk, the wolves’ primary prey. The graph below shows the population size of the wolf and elk populations over time.   Based upon the data presented in the graph, which of the following best identifies the highest wolf population size?

Use the information below to answer the following questions. The Boxwood Company sells blankets for $60 each.  The following was taken from the inventory records during May.  The company had no beginning inventory on May 1. Date Blankets Units Cost          May   3 Purchase 5 $20  10 Sale 3    17 Purchase 10 $24  20 Sale 6    23 Sale 3    30 Purchase 10 $30 ​ ​Assuming that the company uses the perpetual inventory system, determine the gross profit for the sale of May 23 using the FIFO inventory cost method.

A mold organism is isolated from a sinus infection in a diabetic patient. Observation under the microscope of the growth shows wide sparsely septate hyphae with no rhizoids; the sporangiophore ends in a small round top. The colony surface is grey to black and grew very fast. What is the most likely identification of this organism?  

Several children at a summer camp have lesions on their feet along with infected toenails.  The organism has an olive/brown surface with a yellow periphery and a pale yellow reverse. Microscopically, smooth walled 2-4 celled club-shaped macroconidia and no microconidia are observed. This organism is most likely:
