Answer:

The viability of the TMJ disc cell decreased significantly (P <0.0001) without glucose. With glucose present, the decrease in oxygen levels significantly increased viability (P <0.0001), while a decrease in glucose concentration significantly decreased viability (P <0.0001). With glucose present, decreased oxygen levels significantly reduced ATP production (P <0.0001) and matrix synthesis (P <0.0001). A decrease in glucose concentration significantly decreased collagen synthesis (P <0.0001). The interaction between glucose and oxygen was significant with respect to cell viability (P <0.0001), ATP production (P = 0.00015) and the synthesis of collagen (P = 0.0002) and proteoglycans (P <0.0001).

Although both glucose and oxygen are important, glucose is the limiting nutrient for the survival of the TMJ disc cells. At low oxygen levels, the production of ATP, collagen and proteoglycan is severely inhibited. These results suggest that there may be more pronounced nutrient gradients in the TMJ disc and it may be vulnerable to pathological events that impede the supply of nutrients.

Paha777 [63]

The correct answer is C) studying his individual experiences and arriving at a broad generalization. Paul Feldman quit his job as economist and started selling bagels at his former company and other workplaces based in an honor system. He left bagels and doughnuts in boxes and a tray for the money, he would later pick up the leftovers and the money. While he identified factors that increased or decreased the rate of people stealing, he came to the conclusion that most of the people, around 87% are honest and won't steal. Key factors for stealing included big offices, bad weather, holidays and unhappy employees. Key factors for being honest included smaller offices, good weather and a close connection to the person selling the food.

At the end his conclusion was that good people will be good no matter the circumstances and bad people will steal no matter how good the company they work for. Paul F has hope in mankind as his 20 year career selling bagels has demonstrated most people are good.
