DigitalHealth Electronics Inc. is a company that builds diagnostic devices. It was the first company to develop a compact MRI scanner by reconfiguring the components of the MRI technology. This smaller and user-friendly version of the huge MRI scanner created demand from small hospitals, nursing homes, and private practice doctors who were earlier dependent on the scanning machines in large hospitals. Which of the following types of innovations does this scenario best illustrate?

Disruptive  innovation

Explanation:

In this type of innovation, the existing product or technology is upgraded to make it more accessible, available and affordable.

Digital Health Electronics inc. took an existing product (MRI scanner) they re-engineered it to become smaller, that is more accessible to their customers.

Architectural innovation.

Explanation:

When a new product is designed in such a way that  it destroyed the  application of an Established  company's architectural knowledge, but  still  preserves the usefulness of the knowledge of the components in the new product designed, such innovation is called Architectural innovation.

The new innovation is always difficult for the new firms to recognize and reverse, because the new design  usually affected the structural processing of the established firm.

Architectural innovation attracts new customers , so far it is  acceptable and receptive  in the market, but creates greater challenges for the established firm.

volcanoes (an event in the geosphere) release a large amount of particulate matter into the atmosphere. these particles serve as nuclei for the formation of water droplets (hydrosphere). rainfall (hydrosphere) often increases following an eruption, stimulating plant growth (biosphere).

unicellular organisms, like bacteria, are able to perform all life functions within one single cell. multicellular organisms need many different types of cells to carry out the same life processes. each of these special types of cells has a different structure that it perform a specific function.
