👉 Nonmechanistic is a scientific term that refers to phenomena or processes where the behavior of systems, including matter and energy, can be described without regard to how the system's internal forces are acting. In other words, it describes phenomena that do not rely on the internal workings of the system itself but instead depend on the interactions between its components. Nonmechanistic theories often describe phenomena in terms of fundamental principles or properties that underlie their behavior and operation, rather than relying on detailed mathematical models
