<<Can you explain that last statement? Seems to me it doesn't matter what molecules something is made of, even a system, entropy applies.>>

Sure, you are looking at the wrong thing. But I didn't explain it.

In an inorganic system entropy just continues.

But in a biological system it is being fed new energy from the outside (like a lion eating a deer) , so does not run down in a steady state.
