Not just in biology! From the dictionary: Emergent properties-arising and existing only as a phenomenon of independent parts working together, and not predictable on the basis of their properties.n example in Biology is the assembly of amino acids into a protein: an amino acid, by itself, cannot perform the functions of an enzyme, but if you put the right ones together in the correct order, they become an enzyme.
Multicellular organisms show emergent properties. For example: cells form tissues, tissues form organs, organs form organ systems and organ systems form multicellular organisms. The idea is that the whole is greater than the composition of its parts. For example your lungs are made of many cells.ulticellular organisms (example: humans) are composed of many cells while unicellular organisms (example: bacteria) are composed of only one cell. Cells are the basic unit of structure in all organisms.
