Personified Computer Parts Diagram

cparts1443712525201

The image above is a diagram of a personified computer. It is a diagram of a human body, but replaced with computer parts where they would be on a human body.  When personifying, the correct and scientific way to personify something, is not by appearance, but by function. For an example the speakers on a computer if you were to personify based on appearance you would might personify the speaker to a ear because you hear from the speaker like your ear. However, if you were to personify by function the speaker would be the vocal cords because out of the vocal cords come out sound and out of the speakers also come out sound. They don’t take in sound they put out sound.
