Answer:
This statement is incorrect:
Just as two colors will, when carefully mixed, form a third and different color (yellow and blue, for example, produce green), so too it is sometimes possible to see in the cooperative efforts of living things a resultant accomplishment that defies description on the basis of the characteristics of the creatures involved. A description of the traits and performances of the individual members of a hive of honeybees or a championship athletic team hardly serves to describe the results of their joint efforts.
Explanation:
The reasons behind this are two. The first one is that in this paragraph we understand that the main idea is that individual effort can't describe the results of joint efforts. But they can describe it. If we analyze a group's joint effort for parts, or segments we can understand the specific role of each one, and how they contribute to achieving the major goal or the group's goal. For example, a goalkeeper is the only one in the team able to defend the goal sheet all the time, and with the allowance of using his or her hands. If his or her individual effort wasn't performed, the rival team would be able to score goals easier than without him or her. In other words, the individual word can describe the results of joint efforts if we analyze them as a system made of different small processes.
