Seeking a unified and simple approach to understanding the next level of Hydro-Carbon Life
 
  Now that we have discussed the first level of Hydro-Carbon "life", we are ready to discuss the nature and understandings of the second level - Simple Cellular Hydro-Carbon life. Before we begin, however, there are a number of crucial understandings we need to consider.  
12.6.1 Challenge #1- The complexity of the subject  
  If you have ever looked at a book on biology, or a diagram in an encyclopedia, you will realize that cellular science (molecular biology) is littered with multi-syllable and strange sounding words. The sheer size of the catalogue of terms, components and types of cells is bewildering just to contemplate.  
  In molecular biology, there are literally tens of thousands of definitions and components to consider. (No wonder it takes also many years to qualify as a doctor in Western countries at present.) Yet, in order to gain an good understanding of "why cells do what they do", much of this information is relevant. Our first challenge therefore is to try and find a way of describing a set of sciences that normally takes years to understanding across hundreds of thousands of pages into one chapter.  
12.6.2 Challenge #2-The misinterpretation of fundamental terms and concepts  
  To make matters more complicated, cellular science is littered with the same fundamental concepts we discussed in earlier chapters such as the concepts of "energy" and "forces".  
  As we have discussed at length, the concepts of energy and forces are misaligned concepts. Instead we have the understandings provided in the previous chapters as to the underlying nature of motion (energis), vibration (kinesis) and ergon exchange (ergons).  
  Our second challenge then is not only to make sense of the thousands of classifications and descriptions of cellular science but also the redefinition of the processes described within the UCA understandings of energis, ergons and fortis discussed so far.  
12.6.3 Challenge #3 Finding the missing patterns and understandings of UCA at the cellular level  
  The third challenge in seeking to understand the more complex levels of Hydro-Carbon life such as cells is to identify the operation of common patterns and rules of UCA we have discussed.  
  That we have seen the rules of UCA at every other level of matter so far, gives us some confidence that at the level of "cellular life" the same rules also exist.  
  Identification of these patterns is not only important in simplifying the vast array of terms and processes documented in biology, medicine and cellular science, but is also important in identifying those areas, possibly less well understood until now.  
12.6.4 The final challenge- to reconstruct and re-align the sum total understanding of humanity regarding cellular science  
  If you know how and why a car and car engine works, do you really need to know the name and serial numbers of every component?  
  Certainly, if your job happened to to be head of components for a large car manufacturer, your knowledge at such level of detail might be required. But for everyone else, the distilled wisdom of a few good diagrams and explanations is probably enough.  
  In the case of cellular and molecular science, the challenge is no different. We could, if we chose, spend years of formal training to understand the complete naming categories of disease, human body components, molecules and their nature as well as potential cures and nutrition. Yet for all the knowledge a Dean of Medicine may possess, does he or she understand any better the fundamental purposes and processes of the human body and life as a whole?  
  Chances are, even the best cellular and molecular scientists in their individual fields still are not able to provide a complete picture on "how and why" the engine of life works.  
  Thus our final challenge is not only to reconstruct and re-align the sum total understanding of humanity regarding cellular science, but distill this wisdom of thousands of pages into a few dozen.
