Where the particle consists of nested spheres-the most common example of which is the approximation of a spherical cell composed of an inner part ( the cytoplasm ) surrounded by an outer layer ( the cell membrane )-then this can be represented by nested expressions for the shells and the way in which they interact, allowing the properties to be elucidated where there are sufficient parameters related to the number of unknowns being sought.
For example, if a player has lines of nested " Z " pieces, and then drops another " Z " directly on top of one of the nested " Z " s, the one which was dropped will cause the piece below to implode, in turn causing all identical pieces touching that piece to explode, and so on.
