IB ESS Quiz Topic 1 (1.1, 1.2, 1.3)
System - correct answer ✔✔A group of individual parts that work together to preform a particular
function.
System Approach - correct answer ✔✔we visualize the relationship between individual parts and how
they function together. An approach useful to understanding a complex phenomena.
Reductionism - correct answer ✔✔look at each individual part
Model - correct answer ✔✔To show concepts on a scale that is manageable. The two types are systems
and simulations.
Storage - correct answer ✔✔Areas where energy or matter is accumulated inside a system (represented
by boxes)
Flow - correct answer ✔✔Movement of energy or matter within a system (represented by arrows)
Transfer - correct answer ✔✔when a flow of energy or matter does not involve a change in form or state.
There is normally a change of location.
Transformation - correct answer ✔✔when a flow of energy or matter involves a change of state
Open System - correct answer ✔✔A system in which both materials and energy are exchanged across
the boundaries of the system.
Closed System - correct answer ✔✔A system in which energy is exchanged across the boundary but
matter is not.
