Within the traditional essential analysis, “animal” can be treated as a near component of “human.” Moving further from “animal” to “body” introduces an additional conceptual level. A material illustration may likewise trace earth → wall → house under an assumed construction.
Example 1: “Human” → “animal”: a nearby essential component.
Example 2: “Human” → “animal” → “body”: a component reached through another.
Example 3: “House” → “wall” → “earth”: several material relations under a stated assumption.
The examples show how intermediate steps can appear even within inclusion. They should not be generalized mechanically: not every wall is made of earth. One must first specify the intended whole and the assumed composition.
