The Second Law of Thermodynamics and Entropy
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
The second law of thermodynamics holds that every energy transfer loses usable energy as heat, raising the universe's entropy, its measure of disorder.
Show
A cell's metabolic reactions lose energy as heat with every transfer, even as the cell itself stays highly ordered.
Watch for
A cell stays low-entropy locally only by exporting disorder outward — total entropy still rises.
