Some Concepts*Homology: likeness in structure between parts of different organisms (as the wing of a bat and the human arm) due to evolutionary differentiation from a corresponding part in a common ancestor/ a branch of the theory of topology concerned with partitioning space into geometric components (as points, lines, and triangles) and with the study of the number and interrelationships of these components especially by the use of group theory—called also homology theory. *Points, lines, and shapes are concepts of limitations, not that of substances. *Analogy: inference that if two or more things agree with one another in some respects they will probably agree in others/ correspondence in function between anatomical parts of different structure and origin. (The intuitive whole is necessarily presupposed.)*Hologram: a three-dimensional image reproduced from a pattern of interference produced by a split coherent beam of radiation (as a laser).*Existence cannot be constructed. (I. Kant)*Regulative and Constitutive Principles
