Definition

The origin and evolution of the Universe can be observed under many perspectives. The most important are:

The biological vision gives us a peculiar point of view on the Physical Reality focused on the origin and evolution of living beings. It is the field of biology, the theory of evolution and all life sciences.

Description

The world of living forms

Set of Processes of Information, networks of organized Events, capable of self-organizing, reproducing and interacting constructively with the environment, processes that we call Living Forms or "living beings".

It is the world of Finalistic Agents, autonomous agents who modulate their actions and reactions, their "behavior", to the environment, to optimize the probability of permanence of the Information they carry, from which they are constituted and organized. In other words, to promote the survival and development of the individual and the species.

The structure of the biosphere

The biosphere is the set of places and conditions of information and energy, compatible with the existence of living beings. It represents the environment, the landscape of causal exploration, which allows the unfolding of the biological complexity.

It is the set of energy gradients and constraints that allow the "evolutionary work", the construction of the complexity of interacting biological networks that make up local and planetary ecosystems.

The evolutionary lines of living forms

With the increase in the complexity of the systems of inanimate forms that make up a planet, given a coordinated set of favorable natural physical / chemical conditions and an appropriate energy regime, processes of self-regulating chemical reactions (Physical Events) can be triggered, which is the basis able of producing metabolic networks of prebiotic molecular structures.

From these, always within favorable environmental conditions, subsequent evolutionary developments can be produced that can realize primitive living forms.

The interaction of competitive and cooperative evolutionary mechanisms of adaptation can subsequently produce an explosion of biological complexity of living forms, in constant exploration of the possible adjacent, in search of an ever better adaptation to the environmental causal landscape.

From organic compounds to large plant organisms, animals, to humans. From the development of physical bodies to cognitive functions, from reproductive functions, to the transmission of culture, at all levels of complexity.

Complex structures of material and immaterial information that compete and cooperate for the causal permanence in a incessantly changing environment.
