Description	A core paradigm in systems biology is that biological systems are essentially built of highly coordinated sets of interacting networks across different scales [2]. Accordingly, biological behaviour can be thus described in terms of network properties and of their responses to internal and external perturbations, those being genetic, for example mutations, evolutionary rearrangement, or external, such as through the addition of chemicals or environmental changes.
