Questions and Answers

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?

  • 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?

  • 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
  • Why might the size of a baby remain constant for a few minutes despite growth over weeks or months?
