1.Subjective distress: which option sounds more subjective? -the distress of Mr. Bean is mostly represented in the fifth episode when he's at the dental surgeon and plays with the chair as well as uses the tools including the saliva ejector improperly on him out of curiosity and in a yellow liquid. He almost murdered the dentist and attempted to take his teeth out by himself and he used the white glue not knowing what are the tools used for. -The second plot is when he was having the picnic when he held the knife to kill the flies instead of leaving the place, the bees attacked him and he drank a bee from his drink instead of also throwing it out leading the bees to go inside his clothes so he was unintentionally harming himself.

Maladaptiveness: which option sounds more maladaptive? - in the third episode of "The curse of Mr. Bean ", in the places of the swimming pool, Lunch in the park, and the horror film we could see maladaptiveness. -Another thing is when he goes to the pool and plays on the kid's slides, the reason the lifeguard was preventing that from happening not because he wanted Mr. Bean is stubborn but because it's dangerous if he mishandles it he climbs up to a very high rack in the pool even though he's scared of heights and instead of going down he attempts to jump and people can't wait for him to make the move so the kids push him. -The horror movie incident was unique because it's more of a personality perspective test because he held out a thing looking like a knife to a man, if he assumed it was a real knife he could've killed him as a means of self defense with a weapon since I hear stories in the news like that. Mr. Bean in that sense is torturing himself and so are the people around him in movie theater because he's terrified of it and almost had a heart attack but he's remaining seated because the perplexed around him forces him to watch the movie despite jumping everywhere as a defense mechanism worried about the time and money more than the moment of fear he's encountering with his girlfriend who's trying to contain herself.

My doctor told me that birth control pills contain small amounts of estrogen and progesterone, and these hormones prevent me from ovulating. I don't understand how giving me these hormones in a pill would prevent me from ovulating. I assume that it has something to do with the levels of the gonadotropins that I asked about earlier. Can you explain this to me?
In the information about Ortho Tri-Cyclen, it mentions that the hormones in the pill make cervical mucus thicker and stickier. Does this happen during my natural cycle? How are estrogen and progesterone involved in this process?

You overhear some anatomy students imagining out loud what their bones would look like if they had compact bone on the inside and spongy bone on the outside, instead of the other way around. You tell them that such imaginary bones would be poorly designed mechanically and would break easily. Which of the following statements does NOT accurately support your claim?
An outer layer of spongy bone would be constantly damaged by the bending and twisting forces applied to the surface of bone.
Spongy bone consists of a thin organic matrix that serves to lighten the inside of bone, whereas compact bone consists of a dense inorganic matrix designed to resist stress.
Compact bone consists of osteons, which are made up of concentric lamellae with an alternating pattern of collagen fibers designed to resist torsional stress.
Made up of trabeculae that are only a few cell layers thick, spongy bone is much more fragile than compact bone.
