In discussing the energy of a physiological system, the Gibbs free energy is most relevant. Since the value of entropy cannot be known, change in the Gibbs free energy is more commonly used. In order to get reliable result we should hold all variables constant except the one we are interested in measuring. If you are interested in studying muscle contraction in this perspective, which one of the following should be measured? Select one: a. Change in pressure b. Change in electrical charge c. Change in length d. Change in temperature e. Change in number of molecules

Imagine that you are rolling three typical six-sided dice. Each way that you can roll a particular outcome using these three dice represents a microstate for that outcome. How many ways can you roll a five with these three dice? That is, how many microstates exist for a roll of five with three dice? What is the entropy associated with an outcome of five in this situation?
