How does a fish know how to swim? How does a bird know how to fly? How does a baby know how to cry? Their respective DNA. Basically their respective BIOS, (basic input output system), their basic 'hardware' and 'software'.

Take a look at microbes as well. (I highly recommend the YouTube channel 'Journey to the Microcosmos', and note, I do not have any affiliation with that channel other than being a subscriber). Many microbes appear to move about as if they had consciousness, memories and thoughts, although they do not have a physical brain.

Speculation on my part: (copy and paste from my files): LEVELS OF CONSCIOUSNESS? * (Lowest Level): Just energy in a coherent format interacting with itself. * Some sort of feedback mechanism, but with no real consciousness, memories or thoughts. * Some sort of 'memory' established, but still no consciousness to consciously interact with that memory. Just basically like stored preprograms that get activated at certain times. * Low level unconscious activity occurs that can interact with those stored memories. * Higher level consciousness activity occurs, while still having unconscious activity, that interacts with those stored memories with 'thoughts'. (Where we are currently at).

@juancampos1164 Currently: Nature is our greatest ally in so far as Nature gives us life and a place to live it, AND Nature is also our greatest enemy that is going to take it all away. (OSICA)

It appears we exist in a cause and effect state of existence. Every effect has at least one cause.
