A) ( Δ\Delta Ssys is less than 0 and Δ\Delta Ssurr is less than 0.)
B) ( Δ\Delta Ssys is less than 0 and Δ\Delta Ssurr is greater than 0.)
C) ( Δ\Delta Ssys is greater than 0 and Δ\Delta Ssurr is less than 0.)
D) ( Δ\Delta Ssys is greater than 0 and Δ\Delta Ssurr is greater than 0.)
E) ( Δ\Delta Ssys equals 0 and Δ\Delta Ssurr is less than 0.)
