ᛕᎥᕼᗷᗴᖇᑎᗴ丅Ꭵᑕᔕ<p><a href="https://qoto.org/tags/Consciousness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Consciousness</span></a> is a state of <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/Cognition" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Cognition</span></a>. Cognition is a necessary condition for <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/Life" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Life</span></a>, but consciousness isn't. Almost all cognitive processes are unconscious and will become conscious only when there are alternative options available requiring the conscious entity to exercise their <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/free_will" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>free_will</span></a> and make a deliberate choice.</p><p>Making choices requires an <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/Environment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Environment</span></a> where deliberation (competition) and <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/Selection" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Selection</span></a> can emerge. For unconscious living beings, the only available environment is the one external to them, where <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/Evolution" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Evolution</span></a> happens. Conscious beings, in contrast, have also an additional *internal* <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/Learning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Learning</span></a> environment where they can make deliberations and choose between competing alternatives more or less independently from what happens outside.</p>
