Question
16 mark for review how do living things combat the constant increase of entropy in the universe? a by using enzymes to lower the energy barrier. b with a constant input of energy. c by reducing the environmental influence of ph. d they dont
Living things maintain order and combat the universal increase of entropy by constantly taking in energy. Energy input allows them to perform metabolic processes and maintain their organized state. Enzymes lower activation - energy for reactions but don't directly combat entropy. Reducing pH influence is not a main way to combat entropy. And living things do actively combat entropy.
