Robustness in time vs robustness across population. (a) Sections of the R(t) vs R(p) plot. In section A, the function is stable over time and homogenous in the population. In section B, the function is unstable over time but homogeneous within the population. In section C, the function is unstable over time and the population is heterogeneous. In section D, the function is stable over time, but heterogeneity is present in the population. (b) Data plots of R(t) vs R(p) for the following functions: relative ATP level, area, and circularity. The black cross indicates the mean R(t) and R(p) of each function for all oscillation frequencies. Standard deviation represents the distribution of replicates
