Answer the following questions:
1. A plant leaf is more ordered and complex
than are carbon dioxide and water. In
photosynthesis, plants take small, relatively
disordered carbon dioxide and water molecules
and make complex, ordered sugars out of them.
How is it possible for this to happen without
violation the second law of thermodynamics?
2. In light of the laws of thermodynamics,
explain why you get so much hotter when you
run than when you are sitting still?
3. Where does the energy come from that is
stored and released by ATP? In what way is
ATP the energy currency molecule?
4. The average person thinks of enzymes only
as substances in their digestive tract that break
down food. How would you explain the role of
enzymes to your little sister, who has heard
about digestion in grade school biology?
