| Biological Order and Disorder |
|
Definition
Cells create ordered structures from less ordered materials( macro molecules from monomers) -Organisms also replace ordered forms of matter and energy with less ordered forms. -Energy flows into an ecosystem in the form of light and exits in the form of heat. |
