Realist mechanists may insist that merely defining the parts of a mechanism does For also the antirealist's mechanistic model of the action potential will, as it should be, fit models can be provided by both realist and antirealist mechanists.	./cache/work_hqlr5f3pqzcwfhtalmrvpldmfq.pdf	./txt/work_hqlr5f3pqzcwfhtalmrvpldmfq.txt
