Here's why:
* Temporary: Crowds are not permanent groups. They form for a specific reason and disperse once that reason is fulfilled.
* Loosely formed: Crowds lack a formal structure or defined membership. They are typically brought together by shared interests, experiences, or circumstances.
* May or may not interact: While crowds often involve some interaction, it is not essential. People in a crowd can be passive observers, engaged in individual activities, or simply sharing a common space.
Examples of crowds:
* People waiting for a bus
* A concert audience
* Shoppers in a mall
* A protest gathering
