1.5.11 What Is Life?
ОглавлениеThe information in DNA molecules supports a continuous biochemical feedback inside the cell, which self-regulates according to external and internal stimuli (i.e. nutrients, signal molecules, pressure, electromagnetic radiation, and so on). Through energy consumption, this continuous process is maintained in a permanent imbalance above the “inanimate” background. From our reference system, this dynamic self-regulating biochemical feedback is considered life.
