Pyruvate

Q2) The second law of thermodynamics states that every energy transfer and transformation results in increased randomness in the universe. Living organisms consume energy and release energy. They transfer and transform various forms of energy but they still maintain structure and order. Despite this, living organisms do not become more random or disorganized. This can occur because ___________________.
