And evolution is not just the story told by that white bearded man Charles Darwin. What follows is an introduction to evolutionary thinking. After Darwin's research in evolution came the discovery of the inner workings of cells, and most important, the workings of genes. But before we can copycat genetic systems, an introduction to genes is given. The following story of Al and his box of scrabble game tiles might give us an answer to this pretty tricky question.
Species behave in many different ways.
And all of these behaviours are an interesting part of studying biology. On the other hand, instead of collecting different forms of behavior by species of individuals and groups of animals and plants, we could also try to copycat these behaviours in Artificial worlds filled with artificial individuals who are mimicking the behaviours of natural species and maybe tell us something about unanswered questions in the biological thinking of behaviourism. Artificial sciences Biological systems, simulated inside man-made machines. Here is a biologist's introduction to Machines, Computation and Formality. Biology studies life through the medium nature.
