Illustration Friday ~ Hierarchy



The farmer takes wife... The wife takes a child
The child takes a nurse... The nurse takes a cow
The cow takes a dog... The dog takes a cat...
The cat takes a rat... The rat takes the cheese...
The cheese stands alone...

A hierarchy is an arrangement of items (objects, names, values, categories, etc.), in which the items are represented as being "above," "below," or "at the same level as" one another.
