It is proposed that the emergence of simple multicellular forms provided a changed context and spatial scale in which novel physical processes and effects were mobilized by the products of genes that had previously evolved to serve unicellular functions.
Navrhuje preto, že objavenie sa jednoduchého mnohobunkového organizmu poskytlo zmenený kontext a prostredie, v ktorom nové procesy a efekty boli mobilizované produktami génov, ktoré predtým slúžili na fungovanie jednobunkovcov.
