Reveal correct answer

Correct answer: C

A.

The arrangement has to exhibit behavior/meaning that is not observed in the constituent elements. See INCOSE SE Handbook 5th Ed., section 1.1, p.2.

B.

Systems Engineering is considered a transdisciplinary approach because it integrates and transcends multiple disciplines to address complex systems problems. It goes beyond the boundaries of individual disciplines to provide a holistic and comprehensive perspective on system development, management, support, and other related issues. See INCOSE SE Handbook 5th Ed., section 1.1, pp. 1 and 2.

C.

Indeed. See the other explanations.

D.

Many things, including services, can be considered to be a system, as long as it fits the system definition. See INCOSE SE Handbook 5th Ed., section 1.1, p.2.
