When one part of a car fails, the rest of the car doesn’t run properly. Explain why this happens in terms of systems.

Basically, everything runs like a computer system, if one part of the car messes up it sends the wrong signal to another part of the car and that part that received the wrong signal sends another wrong signal to another part which just creates a chain reaction making the car not work properly.

The car is a system that has many parts. In a system, all of the parts function together to make the system work. If one part breaks down, the rest of the system doesn’t function properly. An incorrect or missing input results in the wrong output. For example, if the car battery is dead, the engine won’t turn on, and the car won’t move.
