Message definition (AY Honors/Ecology - Advanced/Answer Key)

One can look at entropy as a measure of chaos or disorder. A high level of entropy means a high level of disorder. A low level of entropy means a high level of order. So, for example, a broken cup has less order and more chaos than an intact one. Likewise, solid crystals, the most organized form of matter, have very low entropy values; and gases, which are highly disorganized, have high entropy values. More to the point, a tree is a highly organized biological unit, but when it burns, the most pf its energy is transformed into heat, which is highly disorganized.

Se puede considerar la entropía como una medida del caos o del desorden. Un alto nivel de entropía significa un alto nivel de desorden. Un bajo nivel de entropía significa un alto nivel de orden. Así, por ejemplo, un vaso roto tiene menos orden y más caos que uno intacto. Del mismo modo, los cristales sólidos, la forma más organizada de la materia, tienen valores de entropía muy bajos; y los gases, que están altamente desorganizados, tienen altos valores de entropía. Más al punto, un árbol es una unidad biológica altamente organizada, pero cuando se quema, la mayor parte de su energía se transforma en calor, que es altamente desorganizado.
