Question

for order or organization to increase in a cell—for example, for amino acids that are floating around at random to be localized to different regions inside the cell, as shown here—what would have to happen? in general, what has to happen to overcome entropy—for a system to become more ordered or more highly organized? there has to be an input of energy—for example, some protein would have to use energy to actively transport the amino acids from one part of the cell to the other. diffusion would have to continue over an extremely long span of time. this is not possible—entropy is a law of the universe (the second law of thermodynamics, if youve taken physics), and cant be overcome or violated. is diffusion faster or slower at higher temperatures? slower faster same (no change)

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Entropy is a measure of disorder. To overcome entropy and make a system more ordered, energy input is required as it can drive processes that organize matter, like active - transport in cells. Regarding diffusion, higher temperatures increase the kinetic energy of particles, causing them to move faster and thus making diffusion faster.

Answer:

  1. There has to be an input of energy—for example, some protein would have to use energy to actively transport the amino acids from one part of the cell to the other.
  2. Faster
