VOCABULARY Structure concentrates on the disposition of details suggested by one use of configuration. But structure may refer in addition to an underlying form that is not necessarily observable by a glance at the outlines of something: excessive fat disguising what was actually a perfectly formed bone structure. Also, structure emphasizes the organic relatedness of a whole, seen from the perspective of function: the complicated structure of the executive branch of the government; the structure of the internal combustion engine.
