As you probably know, an analogy is a thing that helps someone to understand a concept. For instance an example of an analogy is: "The Nucleus of a cell is like a Brain, because the nucleus of a cell controls what goes on in it." The analogy for Cell Nucleus is Brain in this case. A FUNCTIONAL analogy is an analogy of an object or thing that doesn't necessarily look, smell, feel, taste, or sound like your to-be-analogized thing, but it has a similar purpose. An example of this is: "The cell membrane of an animal cell is like a bunch of security guards because they both control what goes in/out." I hope I was helpful.

the first and most important step is to carry it to its logical conclusion. If it still holds up, you've got a reasonable analogy.

For instance, we can look at the phrase "Friends are like parachutes. If they're not there the first time you need them, you won't need them again." On the surface it looks pithy, but it's a lousy metaphor. Parachutes have only one purpose. Friendship has many. There are many levels of friendship and many ways you might need a friend. Most importantly, you don't have friends for the sole purpose of using them when you are in need. If you do, then you're not a good friend.

The parachute analogy might be something to say when people are angry, but it's not representative of friendship.
