    Default 8 functions correlated with biological parameters for life

    my first day in biology class.
    According to the teacher there are 8 characteristics all living things have.
    here are my thoughts on the correlations:

    1: life must consume and expend energy: Ne
    2: life must respond to changes in its environment: Se
    3: life must maintain a homeostatic environment: Si
    4: life must have a plan for its growth encoded in the form of DNA: Ni
    5: life must reproduce: Fi
    6: life must evolve and descend from previous life forms: Fe
    7: life must consist of a cell or cells: Te
    8: life must be highly organized: Ti

    in my opinion they correlate perfectly ...

    I may update this thread with more biology findings, just cuz it helps me remember the shit this way.

    I'm seeing some problems. I think some of those may be connected to the same element.

    My subjective opinion: I'd inverse Ne with Se and Fe with Fi.
    You might be right about the Ne Se reversal. I have to think more about it.
    Life is presumed to appear on earth as elements naturally organize together as an emergent phenomenon. Number 6 identifies inheritance. Inheritance is part of the emergence process.
    For the Fi Fe reversal I think you are wrong. Reproduction, I think, is discriminatory; certain conditions have to be met for it to occur. The process of inheritance is cathartic similar to Fe.

    Edit: I have decided you are also wrong about Ne Se. Reason is consuming and expending resources is opportunistic and takes an active role. Responding to changes in ones environment is passive. You are a product of your circumstances.

    I think there is a general phenomenom of people that are familiar socionics trying to connect the functions to anything they find in life that comes in 8 catagorical varieties no matter how baseless the connection is in the end.

    On the whole I spend very little time thinking about you and wouldn't mind keeping things that way.
    lol. Lose the bitchy behavior. Attack the man's ideas, not the man.

    I don't see anything really wrong with this though, btw. Fi being reproduction makes sense because it's about relationships between individuals, so it already incorporates the 'individuals are selfishly desired' thing.

    There gets a point when attacking the idea is a pointless exercise. Upon which attacking the man can be really rewarding.
