The Inner Tube View of the body is another way of describing the Extrusion View of the body. The word extrusion is usually used to describe a solid substance that is deformed and moved due to high pressure. The process of compressing air into an inner tube is the same as the extrusion process. The […]
Another property of the blob is that it behaves like a memory plastic. A memory plastic is a type of plastic that will retain a shape that it is put in. If a piece of memory plastic is bent from straight to a 90 degree angle, instead of springing back to a straight orientation, the […]
It is helpful to look at how the human body is initially formed in real life, then compare that process to the Blob View of the body. A human being is initially formed when a sperm fertilizes an egg as shown below. The egg will then develop into a human embryo, which then develops into […]
The human embryo was formed by being pushed outwards, or growing from the original egg shape. In the picture below, the entire body of the embryo is curved. A mature human being stands up straight, as shown below. The process of an embryo growing into an adult could be described as the egg continually pushing […]
