(axiom label in BFO2 Reference: [063-002]) B is a disposition means: b is a realizable entity and b’s bearer is some material entity and b is such that if it ceases to exist, then its bearer is physically changed, and b’s realization occurs when and because this bearer is in some special physical circumstances, and this realization occurs in virtue of the bearer’s physical make-up. [BFO] an atom of element X has the disposition to decay to an atom of element Y b is a disposition means: b is a realizable entity & b’s bearer is some material entity & b is such that if it ceases to exist, then its bearer is physically changed, & b’s realization occurs when and because this bearer is in some special physical circumstances, & this realization occurs in virtue of the bearer’s physical make-up. (axiom label in BFO2 Reference: [062-002]) certain people have a predisposition to colon cancer children are innately disposed to categorize objects in certain ways. the cell wall is disposed to filter chemicals in endocytosis and exocytosis disposition BFO 2 Reference: Dispositions exist along a strength continuum. Weaker forms of disposition are realized in only a fraction of triggering cases. These forms occur in a significant number of cases of a similar type. realizable entity role material entity
