A systems can be characterised as a series of elements connected by relationships or links surrounded by a clearly defined boundary to the external environment and with a role of transforming its inputs into desired outputs.
Each element and relationship has an attribute depending on how they are measured, such as size, intensity and strength.
The state of homeostasis is achieved when the system is able to control its internal environment and maintain a dynamic steady state with its changing external environment.
Boundary
The line that marks the inside and outside of a system and that sets off the system from its environment.
