+bistability
+paradigm of low-activity and high-activity states; no cells/systems in between
+
+monostable systems are more common in biology. these are systems where the
+system responds monotonically to a stimulus value or input: the more input, the
+more output, with whatever curve (linear, s-curve, asymptotic)
+
+monostable is "analog"/continuous; bistable is "digital"/discrete
+
+enables persistence
