Which of the following statements about entropy is true?

a.

Entropy increases going from one trophic level to another.

b.

Increases in entropy lead to reversible processes.

c.

A system’s work output is limited when changes in entropy do not occur.

d.

All of the above

Verified Answer :

The correct answer is option C

Reason-

The energy flow at each stage of the trophic level is linked to the change in entropy. Usually the energy decreases with the increase in the trophic level which causes a disorder in the system that is known as entropy. This disorder is basically created due to loss of energy in the metabolic processes in successive trophic level.
