A1: Intelligence is an emergent property of biological complexity.
In other words, as the complexity of a species evolves, the ability to learn from experience expands and becomes more dynamic, increasing survival value of the species. It could be inducted from this that as biological entities become more complex, there is a corresponding change in sentience (in the philosophical sense of ability to have subjective perceptual experiences) and sapience (as in the ability to act with judgment), though such development is unlikely to be continuous, but rather follow the punctuated gradualism model.
