Answer in Brief
Advertisements

Solution

In the instance of Mehak, the psychology group may consist of a diverse set of persons who share a common interest in psychology but are held individually accountable. In contrast, Mehak's football club, which she has recently joined, is a team that shares the same goal of winning and succeeding as a group.

In conclusion, the primary distinction between groups and teams is that individuals in a team collaborate closely to solve problems, whereas individuals in a group are independent from one another.
