constraint

uses evidence and testing to answer questions

scientist

uses science and tools to build a product that solves a problem

engineer

engineering uses technology, mathematics, and knowledge of biological systems to solve biological or medical problems

biomedical

a series of steps that engineers can follow to come up with a solution to a problem

process

an environmental problem that biomedical engineering has created

medical waste

there are a variety of methods that can solve a single problem (true or false)

true

inventors usually apply for a _ to protect their designs

patent

both scientists and engineers use _, including inventions and processes to solve issues

technology

time and money are common _ to many medical problems

constraints

science and engineering are closely related and often _

overlap

to _ a solution is to make something as good as you can given the constraints

optimize

the way that something is formed, built, or organized

structure

something’s job or purpose

function

minimum requirements for how a design must function, like a prosthetic heart needs to be able to pump blood

criteria

a factor, trait, or condition that can change or be changed within an experiment

variable

to find strength-to-mass ratio, you need to _

divide

scientists always try to support their findings with _

evidence

the best bone models had something inside for strength, like the _ bone in a real bone

spongy

biomedical engineering and scientific advances always benefit people (true or false)

false

bones need to be strong but also slightly _
