How does this help you understand how an organism can become more ordered andstill obey the 2nd law? c. Name some spontaneous processes that increase the entropy of the surroundings whileincreasing the order in an organism.
Biology homework The second law of thermodynamics uses S H G T put them in order and correct way and mention what each letter means. I put S = entropy or energy dissipated to surroundings H= total energy G= free energy I’m not sure if I’m correct that is why I’m being sure I know what they mean and also know what T means
