146 Causes and Course of Organic Evolution 



of molecular structure being correlated with a still higher 

 condensation and more perfect work-transforming form of 

 energy, the cognitic. Such by traversing a complex and yet 

 labile molecular structure, and by its high energized capacity, 

 enabled intricate and yet rapid proenvironal reaction to be 

 made in response to one or more environal stimuli, at the same 

 time that, when such stimuli became different in intensity 

 or quality, this slowly effected molecular change in the organ- 

 ism, through alteration in the amount, and in the lines of flow, 

 of cognitic energy passed to the regions involved.
