The Copenhagen interpretation (related to interpretations in biology)

The Copenhagen interpretation is a way of understanding quantum mechanics, emphasizing that particles exist in multiple states simultaneously until measured or observed, which causes them to settle into a specific state. In the context of biology, it highlights how observing or measuring biological processes can influence their outcomes, especially at microscopic levels like in cellular or genetic studies. Essentially, it suggests that in biology, much like in quantum physics, the act of observing can change what is being observed, emphasizing the importance of measurement and context in understanding biological systems.
