The Role of Information in Biological Systems: Beyond Homeostasis and Homeorhesis.

This review explores the critical role of information in biological regulation, extending beyond traditional concepts of homeostasis and homeorhesis. Information, recognized as a fundamental entity alongside matter and energy, governs the dynamic and adaptive processes of living systems. By proposing the concept of «homeoinformation », this paper highlights the continuous processing and integration of information as the foundation for stability and adaptation in life. This perspective offers a more comprehensive framework for understanding the complexity of biological systems and opens new avenues for research into the intricate dynamics of life.
