Dear Arturo, Your mobile is NOT able to transmit and utilize INFORMATION but some signals!!! As well as the artificial limb walk with its owner but it is not a living mater. Firstly, we have to understand what is information! After that ... Friendly regards Krassimir

Dear You write: "For living beings, we know that "Life is a tramission and utilistion of information (not only by ADN, but by all the information which is used by them, at all scales for survival)". However, to make an example, also my mobile is able to transmit and utilize information. I found (and I did not look very well, to be honest) at least EIGHT different definitions of life in literature. Therefore, if I ask: "What is life?" I have, apart from yours, other SEVEN different definitions of life. What does it mean? This means that we have no idea at all about what is life. It is the same as if I asked: "What is love?": who knows?
