Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Joe's ability to repair cars has become encapsulated, which means his expertise in a specific domain (auto repair) has become highly specialized and efficient through years of experience, even as he may find learning new, unrelated skills (like using a computer) more challenging. This encapsulation allows for quick and effective problem-solving within his area of expertise.
