Document Summary

Work= making something happen that cant happen without energy. Physiology = seeks to understand how the earthhling machine functions. Work is measured in the same units as energy = joules (work= energy) 1 j = n. m (newton metre) = kg-m2/s2 ie. one joule is equal to the energy used when you apply a force of one newton over one meter. Animal"s work: using chemical energy to make molecular order (what do you mean by this?) Molecular order: the positions, shapes and chemical bonds of molecules in your body (makes you who you are) You can compare thesus" ship to animals, except that animals core item structure goes right down to the microscopic level . Therefore planks = product at the microscopic level. The molecular structure, down to the microscopic level. Without energy = molecular structures (what makes us, us) disappears over time.
