Abstract
This article presents a hypothesis on the C-value paradox from a dialectical materialism perspective and considers issues related to quantum chemistry. The C-value paradox arises from the divergence between the amount of DNA per haploid genome and the presupposed amount of information contained within the genes. The dialectical nature of the existing totality is proposed to establish the philosophical basis of the article’s arguments, and the limitations of sigma-additive functions and their natural generalization for counting genes in terms of the existence of non-linear dynamics underlying genetic processes are discussed. By considering eight key aspects of the underlying molecular development process involved in the formation of the genetic structure, a solution to the paradox is proposed that can be experimentally verified or refuted. The article concludes by emphasizing the importance of a dialectical approach to understanding the C-value paradox and the current computational limitations for exploring the proposed hypothesis.
