A three CA system
The three CA in the first row are linked
and their impacts are depicted on the right. New impact units were introduced.
The second row depicts the system after injuring CA-3 at t =20. The third
row depicts CA-1 and 2, after
the removal of CA-3
Injury to CA-3 induces a change in CA-1,
while CA-2 is unchanged. There is no direct impact of CA-3 on CA-2. The indirect impact of CA-3 on CA-2 via CA-1, is too weak. Removal
of CA-3 affects both CA.
In vitro fertilization IVF
This experiment illustrates a hidden dimension
of IVF. There is a tendency to remove from the
embryo one cell and inspect
it for dangerous genetic changes.
This procedure may seem harmless. In reality it is not. The removal
of a cell injures the embryo.
The structure of the entire system changes, as well as its health. Following this perturbation, embryo
recuperates, and continues
to grow.
