| − | The [[FIXED REFERENCE MODELS|fixed-reference models]] rely on an abstract coordinate, which is arbitrarily defined and unfortunately has no morphogenetic or physiological meaning. Chambers (circles or spheres) are rotated and translated along these artificial axes, which are fixed and serve as a reference line for the growth process. Therefore, while these models can simulate simple planispiral, trochospiral or uniserial chamber arrangement, they cannot simulate more complex patterns found in foraminifera. For instance, they cannot model gradual or abrupt changes of growth modes that cause different chamber arrangements during ontogeny, such as planispiral and switching to biserial or streptospiral to uniserial (CITED AFTER [[Tyszka & Topa 2005]]). | + | The [[FIXED REFERENCE MODELS|fixed-reference models]] rely on an abstract coordinate, which is arbitrarily defined and unfortunately has no morphogenetic or physiological meaning.
