Some years after the 1900-1901 publication of his main work, the Logische Untersuchungen ( Logical Investigations ), Husserl made some key conceptual elaborations which led him to assert that in order to study the structure of consciousness, one would have to distinguish between the act of consciousness and the phenomena at which it is directed ( the objects as intended ).

External factors such as climate, the parent material which forms the soil and topography, control the overall structure an ecosystem and the way things work within it, but are not themselves influenced by the ecosystem.

External factors, also called state factors, control the overall structure an ecosystem and the way things work within it, but are not themselves influenced by the ecosystem.
