SOME FINAL THOUGHTS ON COMPLEXITY:

---

The underlying point to be extrapolated from this data is that are ample cues indicating complex behaviour in biological evolutionary processes, but not clear-cut proof.

In the words of Stuart Kauffman, a leading expert and researcher of complexity science:
"much of the order seen in organisms is precisely the spontaneous order in the systems of which we are composed . Such order has beauty and elegance, casting an image of permanence and underlying law over biology. Evolution is not just chance caught on the wing. It is not just a tinkering of the
ad hoc, of bricolage, of contraption. It is emergent order harnessed and honed by selection.
