You are talking with one of your friends. he states that evolution has actually violated the second law of thermodynamics, because complex living organisms are more ordered than the nucleic acids, amino acids, and other molecules that compose them. why doesn't evolution contradict the second law of thermodynamics?

Even though evolution may decrease the entropy of living organisms, it increases the entropy of the Earth (or the universe) as organisms release heat.

Explanation:

The Second Law of Thermodynamics relates to the quality of energy. It indicates that there is a waste of quantities of energy when energy transforms or transfers from one object to another and that entropy always increases. This law also indicates that, by nature, any isolated system degenerates into disorder.
