According to V. CSANYI, only processes that do not destroy the system are incorporated (which is self-evident) and, combined with other ones, enter in self-reproductive cycles.
CSANYI adds: “Any organization that cannot maintain its own structure is only temporary and irrelevant to evolution”. Replicative selection works its way from the cellular level up to the whole biosphere (1989, p.78).
