Why can static models be used for biological systems despite constant change?
Why can static models be used for biological systems despite constant change?
- Some features of a dynamic system may actually be static
- Biological changes always happen at a constant speed
- The system can be assumed to be static at certain scales, providing valuable insight (correct)
- Biological changes can happen at a relatively slow speed
What insight can be gained from assuming the system to be static at certain scales?
What insight can be gained from assuming the system to be static at certain scales?
- Dynamic systems are always in a state of change
- The speed of biological changes is constant
- The size of a baby remains constant for a few minutes despite growth over weeks or months (correct)
- Static models provide a complete representation of dynamic systems
In what way can certain features of a dynamic system be static?
In what way can certain features of a dynamic system be static?
- They are dynamic at certain scales and static at others (correct)
- They are always in a state of flux
- They remain unchanged over time
- They change rapidly and then become static
