Research shows that experimental stem cell procedures designed to repair organ damage primarily affect the integrity of the organ tissue rather than the growth of individual cells within the tissue. Therefore, analyzing the effects of such treatments on the health of the individual cells is irrelevant. Rather, the effectiveness of these treatments should only be assessed at the tissue level.
Which of the following would it be most useful to establish in order to evaluate the argument?
A. Whether two methods to measure the integrity of the treated tissue usually give similar judgment
B. Whether the health of individual cells can be effectively analyzed without introducing factors that may impact cell health positively or negatively
C. Whether the health of individual cells affects the integrity of organ tissue
D. Whether some organs can repair comparable levels of damage without the treatment
E. Whether the research has shown that the stem cell procedure effective in treating one organ can repair damage to another organ

Stem Cell Procedure (SCP) is used to repair organ damage. Researchers while studying about SCP came across an interesting aspect -SCP primarily affect the organ tissue, and not facilitating growth of individual cells within tissue.
Two key things to note here, how is the organ damage repair happening, by the effect happening at tissue levels. Secondly, cells are fundamental building blocks of tissues, which group to form an organ.
The findings of the report suggest that analysing the effect on individual cells is irrelevant, and the focus can be shifted to tissue damage alone.
We need an option to evaluate the argument.
A. Whether two methods to measure the integrity of the treated tissue usually give similar judgment.
This option is wrong - because it’s not two methods, but a single procedure which impacts two different layers in the organ. Moreover, if two methods provide a single judgement, does this mean we ignore the SCP impact at cellular level.
B. Whether the health of individual cells can be effectively analyzed without introducing factors that may impact cell health positively or negatively.
The health aspect of the individual cells is not analysed, rather the impact of SCP on the tissue as well as on the individual cells. Moreover, analysing the cells without impacting it in either way, does it alter the research outcome. Hence, Wrong.
C. Whether the health of individual cells affects the integrity of organ tissue. This is the correct answer, as the research suggests to consider the effect of SCP at cells level as irrelevant. If the health of cells affect the integrity of tissues, which means both are interlinked and cannot be ignored. So, ignoring the effect of SCP at cell level cannot be entertained.
D. Whether some organs can repair comparable levels of damage without the treatment.
If organs can repair without the SCP, then the question of effect in cellular or tissue level is not at all relevant, can be ignored. The entire research suggestion can be ignored. Hence, Wrong.
E. Whether the research has shown that the stem cell procedure effective in treating one organ can repair damage to another organ.
This option brings in the inter organ damage recovery, when treatment is initiated at one organ, which causes a ripple effect of recovery in the other organ also. We are not dealing in the inter organ aspect, but intra organ repair process and levels at which the repair and effect of SCP happens. Hence, wrong.
Option C
