a: Central Nervous System ~
b: tree

What:

"Now, let us expand this a little bit further. Think of the nervous system as
a tree (which is more of less what it looks like-see fig. 1) with life and

the pineal gland, which is the mind (also called The Third Eye or The Sixth Chakra)."

a: Deductive reasoning ~
b: funnel logic

What:

"Logic is built on multiple modes of logic. Two of the most popular are inductive and deductive. Deductive reasoning is like "funnel" logic. A=B, B=C, so A=C. Although these arguments are not always true-sometimes the premises of an argument don't accurately reflect reality-a properly formed deductive argument is always logically sound."
