Definitions:

Entropy

A measure of disorder or randomness in a system, often associated with the second law of thermodynamics in physics.

Open Systems

A system is open or closed to the degree that it can exchange information and energy with its environment. A more open system can adapt to environmental changes.

Closed Systems

A system is open or closed to the degree that it can exchange information and energy with its environment. A closed system cannot adapt to environmental changes and is more likely to move toward entropy.

Levels

Different stages or degrees in a hierarchy or process.
