Definition of negentropic in English: negentropicadjective ˌnɛɡɛnˈtrɒpɪkˌneɡənˈträpik Physics Of or characterized by a reduction in entropy (and corresponding increase in order). Example sentencesExamples - The relationship between life as a continuous negentropic process and the zero entropy of the galaxy can be described with the following diagram.
- It is a negentropic force that, while not the inverse of entropy, counteracts entropy by generating new states of order and higher complexity in the universe.
- In the following period of evolution, which can last several hundred or even thousand ka, soils degrade in regard to nutrient supply but species diversity keeps increasing for negentropic reasons.
- But, in relation to this, I was speaking to Leni, yesterday, and we were talking about the fact, that when people are developing, you have this negentropic growth; but, once you stop, you start to degenerate.
- The effectiveness of these negentropic processes is further enhanced by most efficient entropy fluxes related to the transpiration and nocturnal respiration of plants.
Derivatives noun Physics So, we start with a fuzzy conception that ‘entropy is disorder, information is order’; we add the existence of the term negentropy for ‘negative entropy’, identified by Schrödinger as ‘what an organism feeds upon’. Example sentencesExamples - The traditional view of the Net of Religion - as an attempt at complete organization and categorization - is in keeping with current views on both entropy and negentropy.
- In other words they provide a sudden increase in free energy or negentropy that dissipates unevenly through the formation of systems that feed off negative entropy - life.
Origin 1950s (as negentropy): from negative + entropic (see entropy).
