<p><span style="font-size:20px">Weakness of this definition</span></p>
 
<p>&nbsp;The definition has some weak point as below.</p>
 
<ol>
<li>It&rsquo;s hard to explain the other part of consciousness except energy or surviving. For example, some emotional disorders or something like that such as suicidal intent are quite opposite of that definition.</li>
<li>It&rsquo;s impossible to demonstrate cases of the non-eukaryotic like bacteria.</li>
<li>This definition collides with previously existing one; the state of being awake and aware of one&#39;s surroundings.</li>
</ol>
 
<p>&nbsp;To release these weak point, I prepared some clarifications.</p>
 
<p style="margin-left:40px">A. The meaning of disorder is broken down and it can mean some &lsquo;switch&rsquo; isn&rsquo;t working normally. In that situation, &lsquo;the consciousness&rsquo; also may not work properly.</p>
 
<p style="margin-left:40px">B. Prokaryotic also must have the switches by Jong&rsquo;s idea, and if there are switches consisting the life, we can apply the definition to them. It&rsquo;s possible to apply the definition to viruses.</p>
 
<p style="margin-left:40px">C. The previously existing concept of consciousness is based on the brain, but our one isn&rsquo;t and if we take first one &ndash; the state of being awake and aware of one&rsquo;s surroundings &ndash; as the definition, it&rsquo;s still possible to explain; if there aren&rsquo;t some restrictions like brain or other sense organ, bacteria also can recognize surroundings by their own way.</p>
