Explain the difference between group and team?

This question was asked in GD from my college placement cell .

Your Answer

A group is a collective of mutually independent individuals with separate goals who are brought together by common interests and experience. Even though everyone shares information and resources with other group members, each member is responsible for their own work.
A team is an interdependent group of individuals who share responsibility and are focused on a common goal. People in a team have a mutual understanding with other members. By working together, they tend to maximize each other’s strengths and minimize weaknesses.
Let me give you an example :- 
When people share an elevator ride, they are a group; when the elevator gets stuck, they become a team.
