Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Throughputs refer to the processes or transformations that occur within a system, which can include the conversion of inputs into outputs. Therefore, option C is the best choice. Thermodynamics (option A) refers to the study of energy transformation, which is relevant but more specific than the overall description of living systems. Positive transfers (option B) and creations (option E) do not accurately describe the processes occurring within living systems. Kinetics (option D) refers to the study of motion and is not directly related to describing living systems.
