Energy can, however, be converted from one form to another or transferred from a. The laws of thermodynamics are deceptively simple to state, but they are farreaching in their consequences. The change in internal energy of a system during any thermodynamic process depends only on the initial and final states, not on the path leading from one to the other. Therefore, the total energy of the universe is a constant. Considering the body as the system of interest, we can use the first law to examine heat transfer, doing work, and internal energy in activities ranging from sleep to heavy exercise.
