Description
Models the dynamic behavior of the system and how it responds to events
Models the context or environment of the system
Models the interactions between a system and its environment, or between the components of a system
Models the organization of a system or the structure of the data processed by the system
Correct Answer
(1) External,Models the context or environment of the system
(2) Interaction,Models the interactions between a system and its environment, or between the components of a system
(3) Structural,Models the organization of a system or the structure of the data processed by the system
(4) Behavioral,Models the dynamic behavior of the system and how it responds to events
Explanation
The four perspectives are: External (context/environment — what surrounds the system), Interaction (how the system and its components interact), Structural (the organization and data structure of the system), and Behavioral (how the system responds dynamically to events and stimuli).
