Seeing you use intelligence to describe the behavior of cells makes me realize that I don’t have a definition for intelligence. To the degree that I think I combine intelligence and consciousness into some kind of continuum.

How are you defining intelligence such that it encompasses what people do as well has what cells do?

Great question. Psychological research has identified like six areas of intelligence in humans so I’m sure the problem of how to define it simply won’t itself be simple.
