A population-dynamics model of a general informationprocessing system is introduced. This system is functionally coupled to two environments, one internal and one external, which comprise the environage. GBdel's incompleteness theorem provides a basis for the hypothesis that a single phenomenon acco

## _A We consider a dynamical system containing a large number of elements which can be in different states. In order to define a hierarchical partition of the system, strongly coupled states are put together creating groups of states. To each group is associated a single global variable. For such

This paper analyses relationships between probabilities of events happening in biological systems (or probabilistic disposition of systems) and cognitive properties of biological entities comprising such systems. Two kinds of cognitive properties are identi"ed as relevant to the current problem: the
Biological systems are structurally organized according to patterns repeated at each hierarchical level. Complex units are composed of so-called interactors, systems that by cooperative interaction maintain the structure of the complex unit. Interactors are composed of large numbers of assemblies of
