The concept of <font color="#00b0f0">systems dynamics</font>, which posits that <font color="#00b0f0">all systems are interlinked and perpetually in flux</font>, has its roots in the pioneering work of Ludwig von Bertalanffy. As a mathematical logician at General Electric in 1947, he introduced groundbreaking concepts related to living organisms such as homeostasis and <font color="#00b0f0">autopoiesis</font> (self-reproduction). Furthermore, Bertalanffy proposed theories on how systems can evolve or regress in relation to their environment; a system's complexity could either increase or decrease based on its relative interiority/exteriority with its environment. This seminal idea paved the way for the emergence of the "ecosystem" concept. Bertalanffy persistently refined his theoretical framework, introducing the concept of the "organism" into his discourse. He delved deeper into this notion, positing that <font color="#00b0f0">an organism is a living system characterized by its unique form and autonomous interaction with its environment.</font> Moreover, he proposed that <font color="#00b0f0">an organism should be perceived as a holistic entity whose existence is both sustained by and influences its surroundings</font>. For instance, consider human beings: our brain cells are vital for our survival as they facilitate cognition and comprehension of our environment, enabling us to adapt effectively. The life of the organism reciprocally shapes its environment in this dynamic interplay. This intricate relationship between organisms and their environments forms the crux of ecological studies.
