Blossom as a process
Our three CA system
is applied here to
model blossoming. We start with three isolated non interacting
CA. CA-3 age sets max age of CA-1, and when necessary, transfers resources
to CA-2. At t = 40 CA-2 is injured, and the system starts
evolving to its final state.
Following injury, CA-2 draws resources (age)
from CA-3 whose age starts declining. Since CA-3 age
sets max age, more and more CA-1 cells differentiate.
CA-2 recuperates for a while and at t = 100 dies. Now CA-3 diverts
all its resources to save CA-2. Its age declines which speeds CA-1 differentiation.
More and more seed is produced. When CA-3 age reaches its bottom, the entire
system dies
Injury stands here for an external factor which
triggers a process. Like the rising temperature in the spring, which triggers
a short term chemical process (CA-2), that initiates blossoming.
