What is a system?
One example is a circulatory system – with our heart at the centre.
So systems can be a grouping and how we look at groupings.
We can learn about systems in at least two different ways.
- We can look at each element in a system in order to understand how it works by adding together the knowledge we gain about each element.
- And we can look at the system as a whole and try to understand it as a whole.
