contents <p>This paper proposes that actively regulated growth systems — from mammalian cells to giant single-celled organisms to the observable universe — converge on a shared three-component architecture (~70% passive expansion medium, ~25% structural scaffold, ~5% active machinery) and a conserved set of organisational features.</p> <p>The framework generates 12 testable predictions, of which 3 are unique. One prediction (Einasto shape parameter match for microtubule density) was pre-registered, tested against real data from the Allen Cell Explorer, and falsified — the negative result is reported in full. The strongest thread identifies black holes as cosmic lysosomes, supported by Bluck et al. (2023) finding that black hole mass — not accretion rate — predicts galaxy quenching, mirroring mTOR regulation precisely.</p> <p>Research conducted using Claude (Anthropic) under a custom research protocol; supplementary materials include all analysis code, pre-registration, and raw data the negative result is reported in full.
