3.  2 students for each tree will piled up  to formed the boundary, while another 2 students for each tree will bring the bricks  nearer.The remaining students are instructed to run and collect more bricks .

4. Finally they will complete the boundary  in  40 minutes.

   Each brick  can be regarded as a cell. Similar bricks are organised to form a Set  (Tissue). All the sets interconnect to form organs (sides).All of them are now interconnected and formed the boundary ( assume a living organism) of the trees.

Without a single brick  the boundary can't be formed, just as a living organism can't be formed without a cell.
