How to turn something into energy?

Document Summary

Lecture 19: energy production and the evolution of endosymbionts. Chemotroph: any organism that obtains its energy from chemicals. The majority of organisms are heterotroph (all animals, fungi, many protists and most bacteria) Heterotrophs obtain their energy from ingesting autotrophs and heterotrophs. Heterotrophs recycle energy present in their food. Ultimately all energy based on captured sunlight. First law of thermodynamics- energy can only be transferred or transformed, not created. Process will only happen spontaneously (e. g. without added energy) if it increases the entropy of the universe as a whole. Basically means: it is impossible to have a process that transfers heat completely into work (some amount of energy is always lost to heat + a system cannot convert all of its energy to working energy) A measure of the amount of usable energy in that system. Taken energy for someone to pile the bricks- this is then stored. A pile of bricks is very stable.
