Some customers have expensive pedigree dogs and cats and are less price-sensitive than others about fees for veterinary care. Do you think that it would be possible for Hillside to charge higher prices in caring for expensive pets? Why or why not?

A veterinary clinic must have some system for dealing with emergencies that occur on weekends and at night when the clinic is closed. Individual vets usually rotate so that someone is always on call to handle emergencies. The price for emergency care is usually 50 percent higher than the price for care during normal hours. Do you think that Hillside should charge higher prices for emergency care? Does it fit with Hillside’s strategy?

Identify two people or a caregiver (as in the case of an infant), who represent two different stages of the life span—ideally, two who do not identify with your own current stage of life span development—and set up an brief 15–20 minute interview with them for this assignment. For example, select an adolescent and a senior in late adulthood, or the parent of a newborn and a child in late childhood.

When determining time since divergence, researchers compare the number of genetic differences that have accumulated among the taxa of interest. This approach is known as a molecular clock. You want to know how recently the (imaginary) striped salamander and spotted salamander diverged from their common ancestor. Spotted salamanders are found across Australia, while striped salamanders are not found anywhere else in the world except on one island off the coast of Australia. Furthermore, the striped salamander population size is small, with only a few hundred individuals. a) Would the small size of the striped salamander population make the molecular clock technique more reliable or less reliable? Justify your answer. (3-4 sentences) (2 marks) b) Spotted and striped salamanders both consume slugs, earthworms, flies, and mosquitos (in both adult and larval form). Despite their diverse diet, you notice that the spotted salamanders are absent from the island and striped salamanders are absent from the mainland. Your colleague suggests these species do not coexist due to competitive exclusion. Can we definitively say this? Provide one argument in support of this hypothesis and one against. (2-3 sentences) (2 marks)
