Cellular Energy. First Law of Thermodynamics. Take, for example, the first rule of thermodynamics. It argues that an isolated system has a limited quantity of energy that can only be changed into new forms, not generated or destroyed. Entropy is a measure of a system''s disorder, or lack of order. Organisms are reducing entropy in their

READ MOREFluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) microscopy is a technique used for quantifying the distance between two different fluorophores (Clegg, 1996). FRET involves the transfer of energy from a fluorescent donor in its excited state to another excitable moiety, the acceptor, by a nonra-diative dipole-dipole interaction (Lakowicz, 1983).
