Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A "crowd" is defined as a large group of people gathered together, but with no specific social connections or goals. This best describes Juliana's online science group, where members come together for monthly meetings but do not intend to form close relationships or work together towards a common goal. The other options - "band," "team," and "squad" - imply a closer, more collaborative group dynamic than what is described in the scenario.
