Vedclass · Answer

(D) In biological and thermodynamic terms,death is often associated with the cessation of organized metabolic processes.Entropy is a measure of disorder or randomness in a system.Living organisms maintain a state of low entropy by constantly expending energy to keep their internal structures organized.Upon death,the organism can no longer maintain this order,leading to a state of maximum disorder or maximum entropy within the biological system.
