APES Chapter 2 Questions with solutions 100% correct What is an environmental system? a set of interacting components which exchange energy and matter so that a change in one part of the system effects other part(s) of the system. (Ex:,digestive system, ecosystem, car, etc.) How do systems vary in scale, and how does a large system include a smaller system? Systems can occur in any scale (with a cell, within an entire ocean, etc.) A large system may contain many smaller systems within ...
