The second law of thermodynamics states that all energy transformations result in an increase in entropy (disorder). If so, how does photosynthesis, which is an energy transformation, create order rather than disorder? Plants do not obey the second law of thermodynamics. Plants take highly ordered molecules like glucose and break them into smaller disordered molecules like carbon dioxide and water. Plants do not have mitochondria like animals and therefore cannot create disorder. The tree takes in small disordered molecules like carbon dioxide from the air and water from the earth and using solar energy produce highly ordered sugar molecules like glucose. Photosynthesis does not actually create order.

The tree takes in small disordered molecules like carbon dioxide from the air and water from the earth and using solar energy produce highly ordered sugar molecules like glucose.

Which of the following is an example of osmosis? Glucose is transported from our blood stream across cell membranes and into the cytoplasm.

What is the biological risk of using salt on icy roads in parts of the country that have a cold winter season? The salt has the risk of leeching into the ground and creating a hypertonic environment for plant cells. Plant root cells will grow in excess to try to reach fresh water. Plant cells will take on excess water from the melted ice and become turgid. Salt is in limited supply in the ecosystem and this type of overuse will make it even more so. The deer in these areas have the danger of consuming too much of it as they forage for food.

Both starch and cellulose are polysaccharides made by stringing together many glucose molecules, but starch is easily digested by humans, while cellulose is indigestible. Starch has every bond occurring below the sugar rings while the bonds in cellulose alternate between one bond above the ring and the next below the ring. How can you explain humans' inability to digest starch but not cellulose? The enzyme that breaks down polysaccharides can only fit the specific bond configuration within a starch molecule. Humans do not eat cellulose. The acidic molecules found in stomach acid cannot act on the bonds that are above the sugar rings in cellulose. The alternating bonds make the cellulose molecule too large and bulky to enter cells for digestion. Cellular respiration is only capable of breaking down specific bonds.

the enzyme that breaks down polysaccharides can only fit the specific bond configuration within a starch molecule

Eggs are often preserved in a 20-30% salt solution called brine. How does this method prevent contamination by microorganisms? Bacteria can't survive in a hypertonic solution because they lose water. Bacteria can't survive in hypotonic solutions because of the added pressure of the water they take in. Bacteria cells are unable to digest the salt, thus killing the cells by starvation. The high-salt concentration increases the pH of the environment, making it unfavorable for bacteria to live there. The high-salt concentration creates an isotonic environment that the bacteria cannot live in.

Why do metabolic pathways require tens to hundreds of different enzymes? The enzymes are used up after one reaction and the molecules have to undergo multiple rearrangements. The enzyme is deformed by the interaction with the substrate and needs a period of time to return to its original reactive form, so many enzymes are needed to keep the pathway going. Since each step in a pathway utilizes a new substrate, a different enzyme is required for each step. Multiple enzymes are not required for the pathway, but having multiple enzymes speeds up the production of the final product. The enzymes are attached to a membrane and cannot move to the location of the new intermediate, so having a long line of enzymes to carry out the reaction allows the reaction to occur faster.

since each step in a pathway utilizes a new substrate a different enzyme is required for each step
