Question
which of the following statements about entropy is true? a. entropy increases going from one trophic level to another. b. increases in entropy lead to reversible processes. c. a system’s work output is limited when changes in entropy do not occur. d. all of the above please select the best answer from the choices provided
Entropy is a measure of disorder. In ecosystems, entropy increases from one trophic level to another as energy is lost as heat. Increases in entropy lead to irreversible processes according to the second - law of thermodynamics. Also, a system's work output is limited when there are no entropy changes as some entropy change is necessary for work to be done in real - world processes.
