-**evolvability** concerning any system — a society or culture, for example, that has evolvable characteristics and the different rates of evolutionary change they contain. For example: the use of tools within a culture may show observable evolvability -from stones to computers- at a timescale at which human physiology has remained nearly the same.\\+**evolvability** concerning any system — a society or culture, for example, that has evolvable characteristics and the different rates of evolutionary change they contain.
