1. Noua concepţie asupra ciberneticii de ordinul trei consideră ca fiind obiectul de studiu al acesteia:
Correct Answer
D. D. Sistemele adaptive complexe
Explanation
The correct answer is d. Sistemele adaptive complexe. This answer suggests that the new conception of cybernetics focuses on studying complex adaptive systems. These systems are characterized by their ability to adapt and self-regulate in response to changes in their environment. This aligns with the idea that cybernetics is concerned with understanding and modeling the behavior of complex systems, such as biological, social, and ecological systems.

14. Obiectul de studiu al ciberneticii de ordinul III îl constituie:
Correct Answer
A. A. sistemul adaptiv complex
Explanation
The correct answer is a. sistemul adaptiv complex. Cybernetics of the third order focuses on studying complex adaptive systems, which are systems that have the ability to self-organize and adapt to changes in their environment. These systems exhibit emergent behavior, meaning that their overall behavior cannot be predicted by looking at the individual components. Co-evolution, on the other hand, refers to the simultaneous evolution of two or more species that interact with each other. While feedback loops are an important concept in cybernetics, they are not the main focus of the third order.

29. Între cibernetica de ordinul întâi şi cea de ordinul doi deosebirea fundamentală constă în:
Correct Answer
D. D. Una este statică iar cealaltă dinamică
Explanation
The fundamental difference between first-order and second-order cybernetics is that one is static while the other is dynamic. First-order cybernetics focuses on the study of static systems, where feedback loops are used to maintain stability and control. Second-order cybernetics, on the other hand, recognizes the dynamic nature of systems and includes the role of the observer in influencing and shaping the system. This distinction highlights the shift from a mechanistic view of systems to a more holistic and interactive perspective in second-order cybernetics.
