Emergence definition

Tree is a living system or structure involving plant and life, where the organized arrangement of interrelated parts, governed by patterns that govern its transformations and binding, and shape or arrangement that matter takes, as the particles that make up matter interact and transform in space, give rise to a complex pattern of growth and development.
