Question 15 (1 point)
theme: life depends on interactions within and between systems.
emergent properties are the result of interactions between the components of a
system. systems biology models the complex behavior of biological systems. a heart,
arteries, and veins by themselves can't do anything, but if they are assembled in a
body, they can pump blood. what does this illustrate?

a) evolution by natural selection
b) an emergent property
c) the one-way flow of energy in ecosystems
d) the universal genetic code of life

The given scenario illustrates  An emergent property.

Explanation:

A property that explains about the functioning of any system as a whole is an emergent property. The units of that individual system will not work to give the functionality of the entire system. Fallacy of division occurs when there is a failure in the realization of this emergent property.

For instance let us take an ant colony. Ant as a single organism will not be able to attain certain works. While when they join to form a colony they together can accomplish complex and tedious tasks. Hence, in human body also cells of heart acts as an example of an emergent property as they together can accomplish the function.
