Abstract

A model is proposed that allows one to reveal specific features of the biosystem dynamics based on competitive processes of binary interaction. The model assumes a two-level hierarchy of system organization. Objects at the lower level of a system being investigated interact in a random way. The upper level determines the modulation of the development of a random process at the lower level. The application of the results of modeling to processes such as oxygen transport by proteins, adaptation of living organisms to changing environmental conditions, muscle contraction, and adaptability to stresses is discussed.
