In classical bio chemistry, they don't really couple the movement of things to the characteristics of doing work. But when they study the movement of ensigns in the cell, they find that there's all kinds of strange things going on. So even in the simple reaction diffusion framework, which is wayway, way too simple for a n actual description of what's going on in the cell,. Then you get this problem that, as you heat up the system, it can't dissipate products and heat fast enough to keep up with the rate at which heat is being generated inside the cell.
