Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Synergy is the concept that the combination of two or more parts within a system can create a greater benefit than each part on its own. This aligns with the statement "the whole is greater than the sum of the individual parts."

Answer: A
 Open systems are systems that interact with their environment and can receive input and produce output. This concept contrasts with closed systems, which do not interact with their environment and operate independently. The statement "the whole is greater than the sum of the individual parts" is a characteristic of open systems as they are able to utilize the benefits of synergy.

Note: While the other options (B, C, and E) are related to systems, they do not directly align with the statement provided.
