It's not a term I have encountered in caving literature but you could define it as a particular series of passagesor inlet caves enteringin an extensive system. Generally the "sub-system" is simply calledsomething-or-otherseries.
E.g. Shatter Series is adistinct stretch of passages in Swildons Hole (SW England), reached from the main route by descending a pitch (vertical drop to a lower level) so by your definition could be called a "subsystem" of the entire cave. It isn't though - it's a "series.".
["Pitch" in UK cavingis "drop" in US.]

How do caves affect land?
Caves can affect land by creating sinkholes and subsidence when the cave roof collapses. They can also contribute to erosion and sediment transport through underground water flows. Additionally, caves can influence the biodiversity and ecosystems of the surrounding land by providing habitat for unique species.
Where are land caves located?
Most are in limestone uplands (as karst features). Some volcanic areas erupting basaltic lava have lava-tube caves. There are also minor caves in various rocks dotted around the world, such as fissure-caves created by mass-movement.
Where would you find caves?
Caves can be found in various geological formations such as mountains, cliffs, and underground. They can be found all over the world, both on land and underwater. Some famous cave systems include Mammoth Cave in the United States, Waitomo Caves in New Zealand, and the Caves of Drach in Spain.
What are the different types of caves?
The main types of caves are solution caves, lava caves, sea caves, glacier caves, and talus caves. Solution caves form from the dissolution of soluble rocks like limestone; lava caves are created by flowing lava; sea caves are carved by the action of waves on coastal cliffs; glacier caves form within glaciers due to melting and refreezing processes; and talus caves are formed by fallen rocks creating cave-like structures.
Are there different types of caves?
Yes, there are various types of caves, including limestone caves, lava tubes, sea caves, ice caves, and solution caves. Each type of cave is formed through different geological processes and conditions, resulting in unique characteristics and features.

What are the types of sub systems?
Subsystems can be categorized into several types based on their functions and characteristics. Common types include physical subsystems, which involve tangible components like machinery or hardware; logical subsystems, which focus on data and software processes; and organizational subsystems, which pertain to human elements, such as teams and management structures. Additionally, subsystems may be classified based on their interactions, such as open or closed subsystems, depending on their exchange of information with the external environment.
