The best answer to the question: Which of the following systems does NOT display emergent properties? Would be, E: None of the listed responses is correct.

Explanation:

It is first important to understand what an emergent property is, and how it becomes part of a system, or not. Essentially, an emergent property is a characteristic that a system acquires thanks to the team work of the group members and it is not displayed by a single individual. As such, when the individual members of the system work together, the result is an emergent property that would not be present unless the whole group worked as one. From the list given here, all of them are systems that work together to bring about emergent properties, they are groups and systems, and therefore, the cannot be considered as NOT displaying emergent properties. This is why the answer is E.

the correct answer is the following.

one of the groups i belong to is the boy scouts. this is a problem-solving group because it has tasks that we need to solve in order to other people in different activities such as the rescue of lost pets, or elder people in need.

the other group i belong to is kids pro environment, and is an information-sharing group that tries to create conscience about the risks and problems that generate pollution in our cities. we share information to other students and parents on the importance of keep our communities clean and our skies clear.
