a: The adrenaline ~
b: the Spirit of God
What: "Now, I want you to look at everything I have just spoken to you from a spiritual perspective. The Adrenaline is like the Spirit of God who leads and guides us into all truth. Who protects and comforts us. Anaphylactic Shock is like the lies that oppose all things God, which lead all who fall into its trap to death (an severe reaction due to actions taken which cause constricted airways {a.k.a DEATH})"

a: Biodiversity ~
b: drama, comedy, or tragedy
What: "Evolution is typically viewed as something that has happened in the past,
or that it is a historical science. However, evolution is a process that is
happening today. Biodiversity is like a drama, comedy, or tragedy since it
is an evolutionary play that takes place in an ecological theater."

a: aorta ~
b: candy cane
What:
"The shape of the aorta is like a candy cane, with the smaller section of the curve coming out of the heart, curling through the aortic arch, giving off branches to the head and arms. The aorta then descends through the chest cavity, down into the abdomen, and branches to provide blood to the abdominal organs and the legs."
