Understanding Entropy
Entropy naturally tends to increase over time due to the sheer number of disordered states compared to ordered ones. While it seems that life contradicts this principle, living organisms decrease their own entropy by harnessing energy from their environment, primarily from the sun, which leads to a greater increase in entropy around them. This relationship reveals how complex systems can exist within the framework of the second law of thermodynamics.In this clip
