A Correct answer
Explanation

Web services are characterized as loosely coupled (minimal dependencies between services), NOT loosely cohesive. Cohesion refers to how related the functionality within a single module is - web services aim for HIGH cohesion internally, while being loosely coupled from each other. The question asks which is NOT a characteristic, making 'loosely cohesive' the correct answer because it misstates the standard principle.
