What is the process of photosynthesis in plants?
Photosynthesis is the process by which plants convert light energy into chemical energy, producing glucose and oxygen from carbon dioxide and water.
Photosynthesis occurs only at night when plants release carbon dioxide.
Photosynthesis is the process of plants absorbing nutrients from the soil.
Photosynthesis is the method by which plants decompose organic matter.
Define the term 'ecosystem' in biology.

Explain the concept of entropy in thermodynamics.
Entropy quantifies the total energy available for work in a system.
Entropy is the total amount of heat in a thermodynamic process.
Entropy is a measure of disorder and the unavailability of a system's energy to do work.
Entropy is a measure of energy efficiency in a system.
