Trees require no work to act as Turing Machines

Abstract
Work is often confused with energy in the rush to unify all physical phenomena. Normally the difference is not important, but it was noticed by Robert Millikan as soon as Einstein published the Photoelectric effect. Bob, being an expert on balance and classical machines set out to prove Einstein wrong, but instead proved him right. In the Effect the Energy splits precisely into 2 parts, one being the binding energy, the other the kinetic energy. Although there's a change in velocity, there's no Force to do it, so there's no recoil either, and when one uses Feynman to calculate Entropy, there's no entropy. Also when the RNA is produced in the Eukaryotic cells in the tree, according to Feynman the process is reversible. Technically, no entropy is not a violation of the 2nd law, but it's surprising. Also the fact that water is moving from the tree as a wave is surprising, but it explains the fact that one doesn't see or feel the temperature of the superheated steam that is ejected. Instead of recoil a "hole" in the water column is produced, and this is likely used in the photosynthesis process, which requires a "hole". More research is needed to determine if in fact it's not zero entropy that is produced but negative entropy, since we all eat apples made of gas. What computational steps occur in the entire process that makes this happen? This phenomenon may be seen everywhere, once the steps are precisely determined.
