Analyze

Basically any structure can be analyzed on different length scales. As seen from today's recitation dresses, flowers, oranges, computers, buildings, computers, etc. can all be examined in terms of their components. I thought it was pretty interesting how many people chose to relate the structure that they were analyzing to the human body. If you think about it the human body can go from DNA to nucleus to cell to tissue to organ to organ system to body (with tons of other components in between). Even I related my structure, the napkin, to skin without thinking about the fact that this is introduction to bioengineering. It was only after the presentations today that I realized comparing my structure to a part of the human body makes a firmer relation to the field of bioengineering.
