You talk about the cell as if it is an island to itself. Mutlicellular
organisms, the ones with emotions, have cell to cell chemical
communication. If emotions were to evolve from the cellular level, I
think it would be more accurate to look at the chemical response to
1-4.
"Four options are set up once a cell membrane is created:
1. Take in nurturing
2. block out non nurturing
3. hold in and use nurturing
4. excrete out waste."
no lets look at the four options and the emotional reaction of the
cell next door!
Four options cell neighbors:
1. Take in nurturing, 'hey, why didn't i get some of that!"
2. block out non nurturing "i see, you just leave the crums for me!"
3. hold in and use nurturing "oh, now your going to hold out on me!"
4. excrete out waste. "don't dump on me!"
:-)
At any rate, I think chemical response to simulation would be a better
breakdown of evolution of emotions than a simple cell wall barrier.
This is similiar to what you are saying, I'm would just replace
"nutrient" with any another type of molecule that would cause the cell
to react. Also, other factors, such as pH outside of the cell, can
cause a reaction without entering the cell!
What word would best fit your "any other type of molecule that would
cause the cell to react'?
It's hard to find correct terminology that includes all aspects of
each option.
For multi cell organisms we have the overall 'skin' acting as that
organisms cell wall, and a
second one as you mention between cells. I think that that is far down
the history line and very
evolved.
