What is Emergent Properties ?

Emergent properties refer to characteristics of a system that are not just the result of the behaviour of its individual parts. These properties arise from the interactions among the parts, which could not be predicted or explained solely by looking at the parts in isolation. Emergent properties are the product of these interactions, not a sum of the actions of the parts .
