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.

If everyone on the planet used the same amount of
Contact [7]

Answer:

While Americans constitute the 5% of the world population, they use around the 24% of the world's energy.

Then, if the 100% of the population were like the Americans, we have:

5%*x = 100%

x = 100%/5% = 20

the whole population is 20 times the population of the US, then the total energy used is 20 times the energy used in the US.

Then the energy that the 100% of the population would use is equal to:

20*24% = 480%

Sowe actually would need like 5 Earths.

So none of the options is matches this, but this may be because this question is about some specific resources and not for the specific energy used. The closest option is 200%

As we know three most common house hold fuse value sare 3A,5A and 13A.
Reptile [31]

The list of household electrical appliances categorized according to their power consumption and what fuse they will use are:

<u>3A Fuse </u>

  • A table lamp,
  • Computer
  • Blender,
  • Refrigerator  
  • Deep freezer etc.

For every appliance that is rated between 700 and 3000 watts, it's plug should have a 13-amp fuse installed onto it.

<h3>What is a fuse value?</h3>

A fuse rating is the amount of current required to blow (break) the fuse. When a fuse blows, it disconnects power from an electrical system.

The fuse rating is generally printed on the fuse itself. The fuse rating is often expressed in 'amps,' which is the standard measurement for electrical current.

<h3>Why are electrical fuses important?</h3>

If an appliance malfunction results in an excessive current flow, the fuse shuts off the circuit.

If something goes wrong, this safeguards both the wiring and the appliance. A wire that melts easily is within the fuse.

Full Question:

As we know that the three most common household fuse values are 3A, 5A, and 13A.

Make a list of your household electrical appliances. Divide them into three groups according to their power consumption to decide what fuse should be fitted in the plug for each of them.
