There are many different chemicals in a cell to offer different reactions. The chemicals can easily be remembered by memorizing this acronym; CHNOPS. It stands for carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulfur.
We are made mainly of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen - these make up most structures and make sugars and starches, the energy molecules. Then you need nitrogen, phosphorus, sulphur, to make proteins - your muscles, and also all the enzymes and hormones that keep your body working. Lots of minerals are needed too like iron for your haemoglobin (red blood cells), calcium for your teeth and bones. Sodium and potassium are important for sending messages along nerves. Plants photosynthesise using carbon dioxide from the air and water from the soil to make their own food; they store food up as starch in potatoes, grains, leaves, and put sugar into fruits to make them appeal to the animals that will distribute the seeds. Plants use minerals from the soil to manufacture whatever they need in their own structure. So all these elements are available to us when we eat plants.
Elements are the same in chemistry or Biology. They are serially listed in the Periodic Table. Biochemical such as carbohydrates, proteins, nucleic acids and lipids are all derived from the element C, H, N, O and micro nutrient P, S.
What chemical elements are used in biology?
Biochemistry involves many elements, but the main ones you will encounter are carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, which can combine in millions of different ways.

Biology is life. How the grass grows, the birds chirp and how we live. We breathe! Biology teaches us how are body works. Because of biology we have created medicine to fight off infection. So why is biology important to us??? You tell me.

LIFE - biology is literally the study of life
bez it is about science and biology is science

it is important to biology, because all of the components that salt produces when it is dissolved, is very important for the function of the muscles and the nerves
Biology means "study of life". Therefore, it's very important to us. We get knowing a lot important things which are related to our lives. But "Biology" is a science that has many branches, all of them being very important also.

no, chemistry is also important to biology but sometimes we doesn't involved
The noun 'biology' is an uncountable (mass) noun. It has no plural form. The noun 'biology' is a type of aggregate noun, a word representing an indefinite number of elements or parts.
