Energies Life defining characteristics

The domain of living organisms is unified by the commonality of cells and in terms of mutual energy dependence. Living organisms are open systems that create order at the expense of disorder in the environment. Life can be defined by a series of characteristics, including evolved programs and chemical properties. [Pg.17]

The characteristics of batteries include the values of some properties of the batteries that are necessary for the selection and use of the batteries in a specific application. The characteristics of the batteries are defined by the chemistry of the battery, that is, by the materials used for the construction of the battery (electrodes and electrolyte). The most common properties or characteristics used for the selection of a battery system are energy density, capacity, operating voltage, operating temperature, service life, cycle life (for secondary... [Pg.398]

Even if the biological movement are manifested into a wide diversity, these ones have some common characteristics, such as 1) the antientropic character, feature that determined Schrodinger to define the life as a continuous production of negative entropy or of order 2) occur with energy consumption 3) self-regulation and self-control character 4) tend to optimise the relations of living system with the medium within which this one evolves. [Pg.365]
