Annotation:

This paper discusses the principles of biological thermodynamics and their application in living systems. We examine the first law of thermodynamics to understand how living organisms acquire, use, and distribute energy for essential biological processes. The paper addresses the concepts of enthalpy and Hess's law, explaining their role in quantifying energy changes during chemical reactions in living systems. The bachelor's thesis aims to contribute to a deeper understanding of the energetics of living systems and to provide insights into the optimization of energy efficiency and the understanding of the dynamics of biological processes.
