Integrate is commonly defined as which of the following?

• A. To add something to a unit to make it whole
• B. To combine two or more things
• C. To join; to unify
• D. To separate

Answer: (B)

Integrate means bringing different parts together so they form a single, functioning whole. That makes the idea of combining two or more things the best fit, because integration is about uniting separate elements into one cohesive system—like merging data from various sources into one dataset or bringing diverse components into a single project. The sense of adding something to a unit to make it whole focuses more on augmentation than on combining multiple elements, and saying to join or unify is close but doesn’t as explicitly capture the act of bringing several parts into one. To separate is simply the opposite of integrating.
