Question: 1 / 400

According to Systems Theory, how is the whole system affected?

When a new component is added

When one component fails

When one thing changes within the system

According to Systems Theory, the entire system is affected when one thing changes within the system. This is because the system is seen as a whole and all components within it are interconnected and interrelated. Option A is incorrect because the addition of a new component does not necessarily affect the entire system, only the specific components it is connected to. Option B is incorrect because while one component failing may have an impact on other components, it does not necessarily affect the entire system unless it is critical. Option D is incorrect because Systems Theory suggests that there is a cause and effect relationship between all components within the system, so changes are not random. As such, the correct answer is C as it aligns with the principles of Systems Theory.
