Organic compounds are molecules that contain carbon atoms covalently bonded to hydrogen atoms (C-H bonds). Many organic compounds are formed from chains of covalently-linked carbon atoms with hydrogen atoms attached to the chain (a hydrocarbon backbone). You can use the virtual screening(VS) provided by CD Computabio to observe the movement and bonding sites of molecules.
organic compounds have carbon - hydrogen bond. inorganic compounds do not
Carbon containing compounds found in living things are called organic compounds. Examples of organic compounds are carbohydrates, proteins, lipids and nucleotides.

Organic Compounds
All living beings contain organic compounds.
covalent
Covalent bonds exist in all organic compounds. These bonds involve sharing of electrons between atoms, which allows organic molecules to form complex structures and exhibit diverse chemical properties.
Living things are considered organic because they are composed of organic compounds, such as carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids. These compounds contain carbon and are essential for the structure and function of living organisms. Organic chemistry is the study of these carbon-containing compounds in living systems.
Organic compounds have frequently a bond C=C.
Four groups of organic compounds found in living things are:CarbohydratesLipidsNucleic acidsProteins
living things are most likely to contain organic compounds
covalent bond can be seen in organic as well as in inorganic compounds
