However, what are the closely responsible players that decide the configurations of disorder, away from order?All the evidence in neuroscience has said neurons are responsible for functions. But neurons with their electrical and chemical signals. So, since there has not been the possibility to build a mechanistic theory of neurons for functions, the next option is electrochemical.
