The tendency for energy to be lost as heat during the transformation of organic matter is support for what concept?
a. entropy
b. gravity
c. law of the minimum
d. competitive exclusion

a. Entropy

Explanation:

Entropy is the measure of the degree of disorder of a system, being a measure of the unavailability of energy. Rudolf Clausius was the first to use the term Entropy in 1865. Entropy would be the measure of the amount of thermal energy that cannot be reversed into mechanical energy (cannot perform work) at a given temperature.

Because of this concept, we can understand that the tendency of energy to be lost as heat during the transformation of organic matter supports the concept of entropy.

the corpus luteum secretes estrogens and progesterone. the latter hormone causes changes in the uterus that make it more suitable for implantation of the fertilized ovum and the nourishment of the embryo. if the egg is not fertilized, the corpus luteum becomes inactive after 10–14 days, and menstruation occurs.

i hope this : )
