ANSWER: Primary Active Manager (PAM) & Standalone Active Manager (SAM). For 2010, in the Mailbox role, you’ll find either 1 or 2 of them. PAM is used to determine which DAG member is primary and running and SAM is used to report issues with local system. So, a mailbox server with DAG will have both PAM and SAM, while a single server environment will just have SAM. Microsoft TechNet Article on PAM and SAM – CLICK HERE

ANSWER: At least one Exchange Server 2010 SP2 running the Client Access and Hub Transport roles. So, you could in theory have Exchange 2007 Mailbox Servers with a single 2010 Server and support Hybrid mode.
