RE: A: What is the difference between allostasis and homeostasis?
I have done quick research
its a rather silly human reasoning: homeostasis = regulation by evolutionary design as a form of wisdom / anticipation of the system
allostasis = appropriate situation oriented reaction on perturbations as they come. Giving it a cognitive touch (which maybe explains your range arguments)
so its a teleological problem but Im open for further elaboration
Puuh, I think this is a bit too far from my current knowledge. I have to become familiar with things such as teleology first before I can assess this.
But thanks for the new insights. Never heared the term teleology before.
Up to the next stemq issue!!!
