in an living organism free energy and entropy 
a) increases
b) decreases
c) balanced
d) none

Dear student,

Living organisms always try to preserve their internal order or entropy. They decrease their entropy by taking free energy in the form of nutrients and sunlight (photosynthesis) from surroundings. In return they release equal amount of energy in the form of heat.
So the answer will be: b) decreases.

Regards.
