Figure 2-37An everyday illustration of the spontaneous drive toward disorder

Reversing this tendency toward disorder requires an intentional effort and an input of energy: it is not spontaneous. In fact, from the second law of thermodynamics, we can be certain that the human intervention required will release enough heat to the environment to more than compensate for the reordering of the items in this room.

Figure 2-11A simple thermo-dynamic analysis of a living cell

In the upper diagram, the molecules of both the cell and the rest of the universe (its environment) are depicted in a relatively disordered state. In the lower diagram, heat has been released from the cell by a reaction that orders the molecules that the cell contains (green). Because the heat increases the disorder in the environment around the cell, the second law of thermodynamics is satisfied as the cell grows and divides.
