Living Organisms Increase in Complexity as They Grow, Resulting in a Decrease

Multiple Choice

Living organisms increase in complexity as they grow, resulting in a decrease in the entropy of an organism. How does this relate to the second law of thermodynamics?

A) Living organisms do not obey the second law of thermodynamics, which states that the entropy of an organism increases with each energy transformation.
B) As a consequence of the processes required for growth, the decrease in entropy of the organism is associated with a corresponding increase in the entropy of the universe.
C) As a consequence of the processes required for growth, the decrease in entropy of the organism is associated with a corresponding decrease in the entropy of the universe.
D) Living organisms are able to transform chemical energy into entropy.
