To survive an organism must be internally integrative and draw upon resources outside of itself to integrate them into itself according to its internal coherent principles. In doing so an organism breaks down the organization of the resources drawn upon, and reorganizes them to meet its own needs for internal coherence and integrity in its own way of being itself with integrity. To survive an organism must draw upon the existing degree of organization of the resources upon which it draws. Reducing them to high levels of entropy does not serve to promote survival, except as the consequence of drawing upon available energy present in the high level organization. An organism may draw upon highly organized resources as a source of energy and/or as a source of organized resources to be used as building materials. Entropic resources do not serve well as building materials in the absence of generous supplies of concentrated energy available in other highly organized resources. The integration of new structures thus is made possible by drawing upon organized raw materials and upon sources of concentrated available energy.
