A group of students in a summer program in India recently put their minds together to propose a new and improved design for prosthetics for patients who have lost their hands. The difficulty is that many prosthetic, or artificial, hands are hard to fit and move, as well as tiring to use. With robotics, the students in the program succeeded in creating a soft, flexible prosthetic hand that uses a hinged aluminum mechanism and is easier to operate. This innovation has the potential to improve thousands of lives around the world.Which organizational structure does this text primarily use?

A prosthetic is an artificial body part. An engineer is designing a prosthetic finger for a three-year-old child. What constraint should the engineer consider when she is selecting the material for the prosthetic finger design? A. The material must be a substance easily found in nature. B. The material must chemically react with air and water. C. The material must be strong and durable at a small size. D. The material must easily absorb and retain heat.

A prosthetic hand can be used to replace a human hand that has suffered an injury or disease that caused the natural hand to no longer function. An engineer is designing a prosthetic hand similar to the one shown below.She wants the design to function as much like a natural hand as possible. In her design, she is including sensors on the fingers and palm that will send information to the brain. This will allow the patient to use the hand to touch a variety of materials in their environment. When selecting materials to use for the outside of the hand design, which constraint should the engineer consider? A. The materials must have a high melting point. B. The materials must be less dense than water. C. The materials must react chemically with oxygen. D. The materials must be magnetic.
