Organic Entity Pattern

An Organic Entity Pattern is an entity pattern that is a system pattern for organic entities (through their biological processes and natural development).

AKA: Living Entity Pattern, Biological Entity Pattern, Natural Entity Pattern, Life Pattern.
Context:
- It can express life processes through metabolic functions and cellular organization.
- It can maintain biological patterns through homeostatic mechanisms and adaptive responses.
- It can support growth patterns through developmental stages and maturation processes.
- It can enable evolution patterns through genetic variations and natural selection.
- It can facilitate reproduction patterns through genetic transmission and offspring development.
- ...
- It can (often) exhibit self-organization through emergent structures and complex adaptations.
- It can (often) display resilience through repair mechanisms and recovery processes.
- It can (often) demonstrate learning through experience accumulation and behavioral modifications.
- It can (often) show social patterns through group behaviors and cooperative interactions.
- It can (often) develop cognitive patterns through neural processes and mental development.
- ...
- It can range from being a Simple Organic Entity Pattern to being a Complex Organic Entity Pattern, depending on its organism complexity.
- It can range from being a Unicellular Entity Pattern to being a Multicellular Entity Pattern, depending on its cellular organization.
- It can range from being a Basic Organic Entity Pattern to being an Advanced Organic Entity Pattern, depending on its evolutionary stage.
- It can range from being an Individual Organic Entity Pattern to being a Collective Organic Entity Pattern, depending on its social integration.
- It can range from being a Specialized Organic Entity Pattern to being a General Organic Entity Pattern, depending on its adaptation strategy.
- ...
- It can integrate with ecosystem patterns through environmental interactions and resource exchanges.
- It can participate in food web patterns through energy flows and nutrient cycles.
- It can contribute to species patterns through population dynamics and ecological roles.
- It can engage in symbiotic patterns through mutualistic relationships and cooperative behaviors.
- It can follow life cycle patterns through developmental stages and aging processes.

Examples:
- Cellular Patterns, such as:
  - Single Cell Patterns, such as:
    - Bacterial Patterns for prokaryotic functions.
    - Protist Patterns for unicellular eukaryotes.
  - Multicellular Patterns, such as:
    - Tissue Patterns for cellular organizations.
    - Organ Patterns for functional integration.
- Species Patterns, such as:
  - Plant Patterns, such as:
    - Growth Patterns for photosynthetic processes.
    - Reproductive Patterns for seed development.
  - Animal Patterns, such as:
    - Behavioral Patterns for survival strategies.
    - Social Patterns for group interactions.
- Ecosystem Patterns, such as:
  - Community Patterns, such as:
    - Population Patterns for species interactions.
    - Habitat Patterns for environmental adaptations.
  - Interaction Patterns, such as:
    - Symbiotic Patterns for mutual benefits.
    - Competition Patterns for resource allocations.
- ...
Counter-Examples:
- Artificial Entity Patterns, which lack natural evolution.
- Mechanical Entity Patterns, which lack biological processes.
- Synthetic Entity Patterns, which lack organic development.
- Digital Entity Patterns, which lack biological basis.
- Inorganic Entity Patterns, which lack life processes.
