Carbon as the Universal Vortex Lattice Plasma, Torsion, Respiration, and the Architecture of Life

Carbon is not merely a biochemical element. It is the primary torsion-lattice through which plasma organizes into biology. This paper shows that respiration, CO₂ exchange, mitochondrial function, and neural coherence all arise from carbon’s ability to hold rotational phase states in living plasma. Carbon is not consumed by life — it is the geometry life uses to circulate electrons, oxygen, and coherence.
