Significados de emergent character en inglés

Under the emergent character approach, the case becomes frustrating and ambiguous.

These features clearly serve as criteria of species selection in either the emergent character or the emergent fitness approach.

However, the character may represent an aggregate rather than an emergent feature-thusdebarring species selection under the emergent character approach.

The strength of the " emergent character" criterion lies in its ability to identify a set of hard-line, unambiguous cases for species selection.

But we do not require emergent characters to identify a process of selection.

Emergent characters thus stand out in designating the style of individuality maintained by species.

Emergent characters belong exclusively to the species.

In preparing this chapter, I finally realized why I had originally erred in restricting species selection to emergent characters.

The A realm seems firmer because emergent characters count as adaptations of species, and maintain no expression at lower levels.

In the first category, emergent characters of species obviously can't operate at the organismic level because they don't exist for organisms.

Vrba and I were not wrong in identifying emergent characters as especially interesting (we only erred in deeming them necessary for species selection).

Thus, emergent characters are special and fascinating (though not essential to the definition and recognition of species as legitimate Darwinian individuals-seeGould and Lloyd, 1999).
