3. As seen in Assignment #5 of EECS1520, Excel can be used to simulate physiological processes like thyroxine conversion in the liver. In these simulations the value of the time dependent variables, like the amount of thyroxine in the liver, is often defined using the value of the same variable from an earlier time step. This type of relation where each further term of the sequence is defined as a function of the preceding terms is called: a) backward relation b) Forward relation c) Recurrence relation x d) Bidirectional relation e) None of the above
