Document Summary
Midmterm = life & light until membrane transport: 2 parts (alone & then with group) max 4 ppl. There was a famous physicists, wrote a book (cid:498)what is life(cid:499) (cid:498)all of life is energy and we are transmitting it at every moment(cid:499) In physics & other sciences, energy from greek origin (cid:523)energos(cid:524) means (cid:498)active working(cid:499) = the capacity to do work or the ability to move or elicit change in matter (aka anything that has mass) As long as theres been a universe, theres been energy. Even a log has energy = chemical energy (h, c, o makes up stuff in wood) Log also has nuclear energy = protons & neutrons in nucleus. Can only be transferred into one form into another, or from one source to another. Laws of thermodynamics energy in systems: energy is conserved, energy can convert into different forms.
