Abstract Cells are central for life, starting some 3.7 billion years ago with the assembly of first primordial cells in primeval and prebiotic oceans young Earth’s environment. Details this abiogenesis still missing but since competent, self-reproductive cell emerged, life has been based on continuous divisions. Accordingly, all present can be traced directly to very cells. Our senomic concept sentience bioelectromagnetic fields postulated that sentient coterminous. Archaea bacteria most ancient cellular organisms they exhibit a unicellular lifestyle. Some two after emergence Earth, eukaryotic were symbiotically assembled from archaeal bacterial Eukaryotic later coalesced form true multicellular partnership archaea, forming holobionts, including fungi, plants, animals. All living presently integrated into biosphere, which permeates three major ecological habitats: geosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere. Coexistence such vast assemblies collaborating necessitates highly elevated level integration, originates at spheres individual prokaryotic across whole biosphere corresponding hypothetical Gaia concept.

The title of this Special Issue Journal Physiology, 'The Physiology Evolution', was chosen because only by reintegrating physiological processes back into evolutionary biology can itself escape from the impasse which a hardened version Modern Synthesis has led it (see Noble & Noble, 2023, specifically pp. 230−232, for history hardening Synthesis). As Charles Darwin would have been first to recognise, is possible achieve separation between physiology and evolution dogmatically insisting on tight barrier soma germline, precisely what Weismann did in 1883 following Darwin's death 1882. had no experimental evidence his proposal. Indeed he wrote: 'It does not matter whether I am able do so or [provide evidence] …once established that natural selection principle be considered, necessarily follows facts correctly explained selection' (Weismann, 1893, 336−337, our emphasis). Dogma role science, applied soma–germline communication molecular biology. We will return central issue at end Editorial, since we believe problem Barrier now solved experimentally. By contrast, worked hard during last decade life, together with physiologist George Romanes (1886a,b), prove there communication, convinced held clues still missing grand scheme (Noble, 2022a).

She argues needs deal function, causation, teleonomy, agency cognition. concludes 'physiologists players larger debates biomedical sciences over reductionism versus holism, mechanism emergentism, structure proximate ultimate causes behaviour, ontogeny phylogeny, gene-determinism epigenetics.' These arguments further developed de Loof (2024). '"Life" sounds noun, denotes an activity, verb.' Life process, thing. Its cessation (death) disappearance any particular matter. It organisation.
