Similarly, the aims for most living occasions include no (or few) hybrid prehensions, whereas the aim for a dominant occasion
in an animal organism is heavily weighted toward hybrid prehensions of past dominant occasions, which in the case of higher organisms jointly constitute the soul or living person.
Wherever there is evidence of some centralized dominance
in the animal organism, he assumes that a dominant occasion is present; and to whatever degree such dominant occasions have significant serial order, they jointly constitute a soul.
Not exact matches
in addition, there would need to be 2 single celled

animal.
You can argue that the original
organism had better eyesight than others of his species and therefore the change increased his ability to survive, but you ignore that the change had to occur
in the first place, and if there was a change
in the first
animal the interconnectedness of the related bodily functions makes it impossible for the chance change — which by the way required the loss of genetic material — to have happened regardless of the amount of time you had.
To be specific, a human being or higher - order
animal organism is an ongoing subject of experience
in and through its dominant subsociety of occasions; but the coordination therewith required to sustain the flow of consciousness can only be achieved through the collaboration and coordination of millions of sub-fields of activity, subordinate layers of social order, within the
organism.

Now those who accept the evolutionary perspective are generally agreed that the universe is one single process and that there are stages

Whitehead did not speculate on the precise location of memory within the
animal organism, but the most plausible extension of his theory suggests rather that memories are maintained for the soul by other occasions, thereby freeing the soul for its adventure into novelty.2 The way

(Cf. the phenomenon of the «runners» at first connected with the mother plant and then separated from it; the fluid transition between various plants and
animals which appear to be one; the germ - cell inside and outside the parent
organism, etc.) Living forms which present what are apparently very great differences
in space and time can ontologically have the same morphological principle, so that enormous differences of external form can derive from the material substratum and chance patterns of circumstance without change of substantial form (caterpillar - chrysalis butterfly).

in low forms of

animals and humans»
In this regard, we described two types of biologically - based teleologies: (i) an external teleology, where there is a deliberate and conscious setting of goals, those that are generally found among human beings and possibly in higher animals; and (ii) an internal teleology, where there is no self - directed or conscious goal - seeking on the part of living organisms, such as in the natural selection of favorable traits among biologically adaptive specie

When considering the protein source, for example, one must not only consider whether an
animal - or plant - based protein will be used, but the specific
organism from which it is derived (e.g.,
animal: chicken, beef, lamb, pork, etc.; fish: salmon, menhaden, etc.; plant: corn gluten meal, soybean meal, etc.), what part (s) of that
organism will be included (e.g., plant: whole wheat vs. wheat germ vs. wheat bran;
animal: entire
animal vs. skeletal muscle vs. organ meats), and the form
in which it will be added (
animals: frozen, fresh, meal), all of which affect the diet
in terms of cost, nutrient composition and stability, manufacturing requirements, and ingredient handling, transport, and storage.

in responses to cold snaps will give us the potential to understand whether evolution to climate change can occur
in both wild and domesticated
animals, allowing us to better predict which species or breeds will be «winners» and «losers» and to better mitigate the effects of anthropogenic climate change on a wide range of
