1 answer

To determine which definition of "technology" applies to its use in paragraph 3 of "Heads Up, Humans," you would need to review the specific context in which the word is used. However, without the context from that paragraph, I can suggest generally:

  • Definition 1: This would apply if the paragraph discusses how science is applied in a specific field.
  • Definition 2: This would be relevant if the focus is on using scientific methods to achieve business goals or industrial objectives.
  • Definition 3: This typically pertains to specific electronic or digital products, so it would fit best if the paragraph is discussing gadgets or digital systems.
  • Definition 4: This would be applicable if the discussion centers around societal knowledge and the ability to create tools.

If the paragraph relates to tools or knowledge in crafting tools, Definition 4 would be appropriate. If it discusses electronic products, then Definition 3 fits best. Analyzing the content of the paragraph would clarify which definition is used.
