Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An internal entity within a system is a component that transforms data. It can be a process, a module, or a sub-system that manipulates data within the system. External entities are those that communicate with the system but do not transform data, such as users or other systems. Data stores are components that store and retrieve data but do not transform it. Boundaries are the limits of the system itself.
