The second law of thermodynamics says that the total amount of entropy, or randomness, in the universe cannot decrease. However, we see all around us objects that become more ordered—for example, the development of a biological organism or water that freezes. The decrease in entropy, or randomness, in such cases does not violate the second law because

Answer:

The second law is not violated because the those objects become more ordered as a result increasing entropy in the surrounding.

Explanation:

The total entropy in the universe does not decrease. For example, water freezes because it transfer heat to a colder source (the air current), making the entropy of its surrounding increase, more than make up for the decreased entropy in the water.
