Question

According to the document, what characterizes the two-way relationship between technology and biology/medicine?
Options
A Technology impacts biology and medicine, but biology has no reciprocal impact on technology.
B Biology impacts technology by inspiring new designs, and technology impacts biology/medicine by providing new tools.
Correct Answer
C They are entirely separate fields with no direct or significant influence on each other.
D Only biology impacts technology, primarily by providing subjects for study.
Correct Answer

Option B is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

The document explicitly states: 'The relationship is two-way: 1. Technology impacts biology and medicine: New tools let us see, measure, treat, and understand the body in ways that were impossible before. 2. Biology impacts technology: Studying how the body works inspires new engineering designs.' This perfectly matches option B.

Hint

Look for the section that discusses how technology and biology mutually influence each other.
