Question

The concept "efficiency" has quite different meanings for economists (money out/money in), biologists (energy out/energy in), and political scientists (influence exerted/political capital expended) (Newell, 2001, p. 19). From this statement, we should deduce Group of answer choices It is impossible to integrate insights from economics, biology, and political science because the vocabulary cannot be integrated That as interdisciplinarians we must often bring out common meanings, making them applicable to different texts and contexts. Economists, Biologists, and Political Scientists cannot define words accurately.

Answer 1

Answer:

That as inter-disciplinarians we must often bring out common meanings, making them applicable to different texts and contexts.

Explanation:

To deduce is to reduce the choices of answers. Basically by deducing it means to reach to a common definition of the word efficiency in all the fields, whether it be economists, or biologists or political scientists.

This will ensure easy understanding and easy communication of the term at broader level. This will clearly provide for the better ease in all the fields of work.

As we relate to more than a single branch of knowledge, using a single term with different meaning in different branches turns the situation complex.
