Biology: Why heat increases entropy
Description
Why heat increases entropy—even though some of it can do work!
Biology
Life is beautiful! From atoms to cells, from genes to proteins, from populations to ecosystems, biology is the study of the fascinating and intricate systems that make life possible. Dive in to learn more about the many branches of biology and why they are exciting and important. Covers topics seen in a high school or first-year college biology course.
Laws of thermodynamics
Although it might be fun to be exempt from the laws of physics (flying, anyone?), it turns out that cells and organisms are in fact subject to these laws, just like any other type of matter. Learn more about the laws of thermodynamics and how they rel…
