How much emergent behavior arises from the model? The only passage I see describing any of it is this one: > The model showed that the cell dedicated most of its energy to transporting molecules across the cell membrane, which fits its profile as a parasitic cell. Whether it mimics the behavior of real cells seems like the right test. We'll never be able to get it to parallel the outcome of a real system, thanks to chaos theory. But if it does lots of things that real cells do -- eating, immune system battles, reproduction -- we should be pretty happy.
