论文摘要
宏观体中分子碰撞的动力学由参数热力学熵编码 - 与给定宏观固化剂相对应的分子构型数量的统计度量。宏观体中能量流中的方向性由第二种热力学定律描述：在孤立的系统中，即对能量和物质输入的系统，热力学熵的增加。复制生物种群中较低水平相互作用的动力学由参数进化熵编码，这是一种统计措施，描述了复制生物种群中代谢周期的数量和多样性。进化的基本定理描述了生物体种群中能量转化的方向性：在能量和物质输入的系统中，当能源稀缺和多样化时，进化熵的增加，当能源丰富且奇异时减少。本文表明，当Rho到0和N到Infinity时，Rho是外部能源的生产率，而N表示复制单元的数量，进化熵，一个有组织的能量状态；和热力学熵，一种随机的能量状态，重合。因此，进化的基本定理是对热力学第二定律的概括。
The dynamics of molecular collisions in a macroscopic body are encoded by the parameter Thermodynamic entropy - a statistical measure of the number of molecular configurations that correspond to a given macrostate. Directionality in the flow of energy in macroscopic bodies is described by the Second Law of Thermodynamics: In isolated systems, that is systems closed to the input of energy and matter, thermodynamic entropy increases. The dynamics of the lower level interactions in populations of replicating organisms is encoded by the parameter Evolutionary entropy, a statistical measure which describes the number and diversity of metabolic cycles in a population of replicating organisms. Directionality in the transformation of energy in populations of organisms is described by the Fundamental Theorem of Evolution: In systems open to the input of energy and matter, Evolutionary entropy increases, when the energy source is scarce and diverse, and decreases when the energy source is abundant and singular. This article shows that when rho to 0, and N to infinity, where rho is the production rate of the external energy source, and N denote the number of replicating units, evolutionary entropy, an organized state of energy; and thermodynamic entropy, a randomized state of energy, coincide. Accordingly, the Fundamental Theorem of Evolution, is a generalization of the Second Law of Thermodynamics.
