Abstract

Flexion Biology presents biology as a distinct structural regime of matter,defined not by molecular composition or functional mechanisms,but by the emergence of active self-maintenance, regulated memory,and agentive preservation of viability. The work treats biological description as admissible only under specificstructural conditions. Biology is shown to emerge from chemical regimeswhen persistence becomes self-sustaining, and to cease when this capacityis exhausted, even if chemical or physical processes continue. This theory is diagnostic rather than predictive.It does not propose biological mechanisms, genetic models,or computational frameworks.Instead, it defines the structural boundaries within whichbiological reasoning remains meaningful, and clarifies its relationto chemical and physical regimes of matter.
