For an organism to grow, chemical reactions that absorb energy from the surroundings must take place. However, these reactions d
o not occur spontaneously. Describe how an organism is able to carry out non-spontaneous reactions, and how non-spontaneous reactions affect the organism in terms of entropy.
the process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize nutrients from carbon dioxide and water. Photosynthesis in plants generally involves the green pigment chlorophyll and generates oxygen as a by-product.
