Nonlinear Whole Biology and Loop Quantum Theory Applied to Biology
Yi-Fang Chang
Abstract
Based on the inseparability and correlativity of the biological systems, we discuss the nonlinear whole biology and four basic
hypotheses. It may unify reductionism and holism, structuralism and functionalism. Further, the loop quantum theory, which
constitutes a very small discontinuous space, as new method is applied to biology. From this we propose the model of protein
folding and lungs. In the model we apply some known results, and obtain four approximate conclusions: their structures are
quantized, their space regions are finite, various singularities correspond to folding and crossed points, and different types of
catastrophe exist. Moreover, it is discussed that the fractal is combined with a Gambini’s quantity. Finally, the medical meaning
of the theory is discussed briefly.
