Does the death of an organism result in increased or decreased entropy

Biology
1 answer:
Anastasy [175]3 years ago
6 0

Answer;

Increased

Death of an organism results to an increased entropy because as soon as an organism dies, another one is formed.

Explanation;

Entropy  is the measure of the unusable energy that escapes when energy is being converted.

The 'heat-death' of the universe is when the universe has reached a state of maximum entropy. This happens when all available energy (such as from a hot source) has moved to places of less energy (such as a colder source). Once this has happened, no more work can be extracted from the universe. Since heat ceases to flow, no more work can be acquired from heat transfer.

In humans, a type of blindness is due to a dominant allele; normal vision is the result of a recessive allele. Migraine headache
yan [13]

Answer:

Yes.

Probability of such child = 1/2 or 50%

Explanation:

According to the question, below are the genotypes and phenotypes possibilities:

aa = normal vision & no headache

Aa = normal vision & no headache

AA = blindness & headache

                                                                      Male                       Female

                                                                        Aa                            aa

Possible genotypes of progeny:            Aa        Aa           aa         aa

So it is clear that out of the 4 probable children, 2 with 'genotype aa' will have normal vision & no headache.

Mathematical expression is as under:

2/4 = 1/2 that means 50% progeny.
