This can be done by adding two more concepts to the definition: “language system” and “meaning”. In the case of the definition “information is everything that the sender emits that the recipient can interpret”, four additional definitions will have to be introduced for the concepts “sender”, “receiver”, “radiates”, “interprets”.<br><br>Efim Lieberman in 1972 realized the need to take into account the actions spent on calculations in all biological cells<br><a href="https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/doi.org/10.1016/j.biosystems.2022.104653__;!!D9dNQwwGXtA!RnOEih8sgWzPRFRCWueR81K14O1xTQkUPMFOGyIS_e3Qqoj80tIU3rGT-kvAHkPBy0yw5FbjkjoGfol-47zh$">https://doi.org/10.1016/j.biosystems.2022.104653</a><br><br>In this paradigm, it is clear that information does not exist without material carriers - code elements.<br><br>For all the cells of the world, we have one language system, which is called "Genetic Language".
