The author conducted an experiment on the relativity between the mandibular buccal and lingual cusp inclines by means of measuring full arch plaster cast teeth of the fifty student subjects of the College of Dentistry, Seoul National University. The results were as follows: 1. The statistical relativity between the mandibular buccal and lingual cusp inclines in individual tooth was hardly recognized. 2. In the cusp incline data of the whole posterior teeth, the rough basis for the harmonizing with the other occlusion factors was recognizable. 3. The cusp inclination itself was incomplete in mechanical balance, therefore, it might be said that there were a lot of possibilities that the cusp incline may act as a potential etiological factor to give rise to occlusal diseases.

Professor Song criticizes my view on the Sleeping Beauty problem in his recent paper which endorses the thirder solution. I shall argue that his criticism is based upon a strong interpretation on my view and that this interpretation is neither unique nor proper. Critically examining recent discussions on observer-relativity of probability I shall claim that my perspectivistic solution to the Sleeping Beauty problem is still plausible.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the distribution and fluorescence intensity of vasoactive intestinal polypeptide immunoreactive (VIP-IR) cells in rat trigeminal ganglion following pulp extirpation of rat mandibular molar. The animals were divided into control group(n=6) and experimental group(n=6). The experimental animals were sacrificed at 14 days after pulp extirpation. The trigeminal ganglion was removed and immersed in the 4% paraformaldehyde in 0.1M phosphate buffer. Serial frozen sections about $20{\mu}m$ in thickness were cut with a cryostat. The immunofluorescence staining was performed. The rabbit anti-VIP(1 : 8,000) was used as primary antibody and fluorescene isothiocynate(FITC) conjugated anti-rabbit IgG(1 : 80) as secondary antibody. The slides were observed under confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM). Unprocessed optical sections were obtained and stored on a optical disk. Color pictures were printed by a video copy processor. The results were as follows; 1. The positive ratio of VIP-IR cells in mandibular part of trigeminal ganglion were 7.40% in control group and 28.42% in experimental group(14 days after pulp extirpation). 2. The relative fluorescence intensity of VIP-IR cells in mandibular part of trigeminal ganglion were 87.78 in control group and 138.65 in experimental group. The relative fluorescence intensity of experimental group was 58% higher than that of control group. 3. In optical serial section analysis of VIP-IR cells of experimental group, most of the 9 sections showed high fluorescence intensity. At high magnification, axons of the experimental group displayed greater VIP-IR than in the control group, and the positive cells were mainly of medium size. The result indicate that number and fluorescence intensity of VIP-IR cells were increased in the mandibular part of trigeminal ganglion following pulp extirpation of mandibular molar, and it suggests that VIP could play a role in processing of nociception.

The reproductive ecology of freshwater bivalve, Unio douglasiae in Lake Uiam were examined from March 2014 to February 2015. The gonads distributed in reticular connective tissue, the dioecious clams take an internal fertilization and fertilized eggs are stored in the foster-sack in the gills, then the hatched juveniles are released outside after an ovoviviparous process. The gonad index (GI) began to increase in April, reached the maximum value in July and to decrease in August. The reproductive cycle of U. douglasiae can be divided into five successive stages: multiplicative stage (November to January), growing stage (February to March), mature stage (February to May), spawning stage (April to September), recovery stage (August to December). The spawning periods were from April to September, and the main spawning occurred between April and July. The shell length at 50% group maturity was estimated to be 29.4 mm.

In this study, growth-line analysis was carried out on the hard clam (Meretrix petechialis) collected from the Neolithic shell middens in Daejuk-ri, Seosan, Korea, to reconstruct palaeoenvironment. Growth increments of 206 specimens of the clam were examined. The ages of the specimens were determined from the rings on the shells. The relationship between shell length and ring radius in each ring group was expressed as a regression line, indicating a correspondence in each ring formation. Growth pattern of the midden specimens was compared to that of modern ones collected from Gimje, Jeonbuk. Growth curves for shell length fitted to the von Berta anffy's growth curve were expressed respectively as follows: $SL_t=102.9025[1-e^{-0.18657(t+1.0906)}]$ in the shell midden specimens, $SL_t=104.2583[1-e^{-0.2277(t+0.7499)}]$ in the modern ones. The relationship between shell length (SL; mm) and shell height (SH; mm) was expressed by the following equations: SH = 0.7791 SL + 3.6636 ($R^2$ = 0.946) in the midden specimens, SH = 0.8103 SL + 0.5145 ($R^2$ = 0.991) in the modern ones. The results of the tests regarding the differences between regression coefficients and elevations of growth curves of these two populations demonstrate that the slopes were not significantly different (p < 0.05), but the elevations were (p > 0.05). However, overall growth curves of the midden and modern populations were not significantly different, indicating that shell growth environments of the two areas are similar. Therefore, it is likely that sea temperature near the midden area could be similar to that of present Gimje area, and thus temperature during the period of the midden formation could be higher than presently known.

The followings are the results of study about morphological variation of mussel, Mytilus coruscus collected respectively from Sanyang-myeon Tongyeong-goon Gyeongnam on 13th January, Yeonwha-do Yokji-myeon Tongyeong-goon Gyeongnam on 15th May and down below the Yeong-do Bridge Busan on 20th August, 1964. The biggest mussel of the above three areas have been from Yeong-do Bridge, whose shell height is 164.1 mm, shell length 77.8mm, shell breadth 52.2mm, total weight 291,9g and shell length is as follows : from Yeong-do Bridge L=0.4954H + 1.9516, from Sanyang-myeon L=0.3718H + 14.145, from Yeonwha-do L=0.4074H + 9,6610 The relationship between shell height and shell breadth is as follows : from Yeong-do Bridge B=0.3426H + 0.2052, from Sanyang-myeon B=0.3084H + 3.6183, from Yeonwha-do B=0.3507H + 0.8028 In view of the above relationship, it is concluded that the slope value of mussel, nearer to the inshore from the off-sea, is similar to that of M. edulis, from which are can presume that M. coruscus could be changed in shell form according to its environment. Growth curve between total weight and shell height is as follows : from Yeong-do Bridge W=0. 00020469 $$H^{2.79745}$ from Sanyang-myeon W=0.00061512$H^{2.53708}$ from Yeonwha-do W=0.00016965$H^{2.83960}$

For improvement of fishermen's income by oyster cultivation in eastern coast of Korea, the spats of oyster (Crassostrea gigas) collected from Hadong in southern coast of Korea were transplanted to Chumunjin and cultured by hanging long line method from August 1994 to July 1995 for examination of their growth and ground environmental conditions. The environmental conditions show the annual range of water temperature as 8.33~$25.62^{\circ}C$, salinity as 32.84~$34.28\textperthousand$, PO4-P as 0.09~0.40$\mu$g-at/1, dissolived inorganic nitrogen (DIN) as 0.32~3.21$\mu$g-at/1. The growth of oyster in hanging culture was as follows : 88.7mm (shell hight) in upper layer (7m), 84.9mm in middle layer (10m) and 78.0mm in lower layer (13m) after one-year cultivation. Thus, the oysters in upper layer had grown relatively faster than those in lower layer. The relationships between shell hight (SH) and shell length (SL) in each culturing depth as follows : SL=0.5403 SH+8.5486 (r=0.9959) in upper layer, SL=0.5813 SH+3.7775 (r=0.9869) in middle layer, and SL=0.5159 SH+6.8736 (r=0.9961) in lower layer. The meat weight of oyster was the highest value as 13.24g in upper layer, and 12.68g in middle layer, and lowest as 10.96g in lower layer. The relationships between total wight (TW) and meat weight (MW) with culturing water layer were as follows : MW=0.1933 TW+0.1051 (r=0.0073) in upper layer, MW=0.1915 TW+0.1894 (r=0.9984) in middle layer, and MW=0.1650 TW+0.0558 (r=0.9983) in lower layer.

Studies of the seed production of Urechis unicinctus were conducted under the laboratory conditions to obtain some information for the U.unicinitus culture. The experiment included developmental studies of the egg development, larval culture, sediment preference and growth of young U.unicinctus. The experiment were conducted from March to August, 2000. The adults of U.unicinctus collected in Namhae-do, Korea. The developments of the fertilized eggs were observed under a light-microscope at intervals of one hour after containing with density of one individual per 1 $m\ell$. The larvae were fed with Phaeodactylum tricornutum cultured at the laboratory. The concentration of the phytoplankton for the feed was 30,000 cells per individual larva. With progress of development, the food concentration was gradually increased, up to 10,000 cells per individual for the young U.unicinctus. Trochophore larvae appeared on the 68 hours after hatching. On the 32 days after hatching, over 50% of fertilized eggs developed into young U.unicinctus. In order to investigate the effect of sediment on the growth and burrowing of U.unicinctus, the young worms were reared in tanks with different grain sizes. The highest value of sediment preference and survival rate of U.unicinctus was shown in the mixture sediment group with below 0.10 mm, 1.01∼12.00 mm, over 3.01 mm and shell. The lowest value in both sediment preference and survival rate of U.unicinctus was observed in 1.0l∼2.00 mm grain size.

Since the middle of the 19th century, East Asia, especially Korea, was oppressed externally by the imperialism of Japan and others while internally long-lasting political convention like in-law government was driving the country into troubles at home and abroad. Witnessing such a situation and building up scholarly capability through reading over nearly all spheres, a Confucian philosopher, Ch'oe Han-gi (崔漢綺, 1803-1877), philosophized about the clue to the solution of such a choking phenomenon. Ch'oe believed that there was movement, ki (matter, material force, energy) of revolving transformation inherent in all things, people, or objects. Grasping even the principle and order of existence inherent in things from the viewpoint of ki, he tried to change the traditional theory on the law of existence of things that there existed an ontological reason lacking in motility, which was more dominant than anything existing in the universe and which ruled over the world. From this, he elucidated that the Way, an identity that rules over all affairs and things, was not simply one but diverse. This means, on one hand, that he tentatively accepted the relativity of things. On the other hand, he also taught us "oneness in all things" in which all including human beings exist in close connection to each other transcending the relativity or "agreement" in which they exist in harmony as one and "unity" in which they are united into one.

Lee Sang, a poet and a architect, made new experimental poems that was influenced by quantum mechanics and theory of relativity that were published in the early 1900's, and he showed his new view of the world that transcended time and space limit through his poems. In this essay, I studied and analyzed on the links between his view of the world and modern design view with as the central figure his text, 'A Written Promise of The Line' The result is that he fellow the cyclic world view which the world consisted of cycles within cycles, of immense duration and the scientific view of the world which the universe and me are one flesh.
