JUST. “Evolution is not necessary for living, it just happens.” https://lnkd.in/eS_4y_J View in LinkedIn

SIDE EFFECT OF LIFE. “Evolution is not necessary for life to function. Life simply cannot avoid evolution; evolution is rather a side-effect of living processes.” https://lnkd.in/eS_4y_J View in LinkedIn

ADAPTIVE EVOLUTION #4. “Random mutations, epigenetic change (learning) first. According to the semiotic mechanism described, the first event in an evolutionary transformation is a plastic change (change of phenotype), followed by the stochastic genetic changes. This...is of secondary importance.” https://lnkd.in/eS_4y_J View in LinkedIn

THE CORE. “Everything in life is a result of evolution and is based on evolution.” https://lnkd.in/eS_4y_J View in LinkedIn

ADAPTIVE EVOLUTION #3. “Random mutations, genetic change first. This is the common neo-Darwinian mechanism, the first event being a random genetic change, followed by a new phenotype and natural selection. This...is of primary importance.” https://lnkd.in/eS_4y_J View in LinkedIn

ADAPTIVE EVOLUTION #2. “Non-random mutations, epigenetic change (learning) first...The term ‘learning’ is appropriate here in the general sense, if to define learning as an adaptive plastic change...This mechanism can be identified as a Lamarckian theory.” https://lnkd.in/eS_4y_J View in LinkedIn

ADAPTIVE EVOLUTION #1. “Mechanisms of Adaptive Evolution: 1. Non-random mutations, genetic change first...there exist some recent claims about the existence of this mechanism. For instance, J. A. Shapiro writes: ‘Cells are built to evolve; they have the ability to alter their hereditary characteristics rapidly through well-described natural genetic engineering […]’.” https://lnkd.in/eS_4y_J View in LinkedIn

SEMIOTIC CHANGE. “The semiotic mechanism of an evolutionary event consists of two steps: (1) the adaptive plastic non-genetic change, and (2) the neutral genetic change.” https://lnkd.in/eS_4y_J View in LinkedIn

FUTURE MALADAPTION. “It is possible, for instance, that an adaptation which enables an organism to consume certain food and to specialize on its use may become detrimental due to a later shortage of that resource – still, it remains an adaptation.” https://lnkd.in/eS_4y_J View in LinkedIn
