Additive Manufacturing
the process of building up a three-dimensional object, layer by layer
adjusting a 3D printer's build plate to make it level relative to the nozzle
a technical modeling process that can be used to design parts before 3D printing
contained, controlled environment in and around a 3D printer.
Answer explanation
A sculpture is the opposite of additive manufacturing because you start with a lot of material and take away what you don't want. Additive manufacturing is where you start with nothing then add layers of materials to create what you want.

Bed Leveling
adjusting a 3D printer's build plate to make it level relative to the nozzle
contained, controlled environment in and around a 3D printer.
A thermoplastic used in some types of 3D printing, our class printer uses this
the language through which a 3D printer (and most CNC machines) is controlled
Stereolithography (STL) Common type of file used for download
Answer explanation
Bed leveling makes sure the print surface is in the correct location for the 3D model to print. The figure on the left was printed with a leveled bed, the one on the right was not.
