A scheme of the two-track biology in the background of a complex Chinese knob This scheme emphasizes the pattern-rich and intertwining nature of modern biology and its stratification. The informational track is obviously overwhelmed by a complex network of the operational track that not only has multiple facets but also is rich in real experimental data. The interaction between the two tracks remains to be defined in details.
