Reductionist scientists observe the components of organsims and attempt to understand them at the most basic level. Systems biology focuses on the system as a whole composed of interacting parts. The two are similar in various ways. For instance, the system biologist must understand each component in order to understand the whole. In this way, they complement to each other.
Among two approaches, a system biologist would be more likely to accept emerging properties and new discoveries. This is because; it is easy to shift your paradigm when you understand the complexity of evolving life. It is hard to shift yor paradigm when you understand everything as a labeled item, neatly filed with known properties.
