Six elements cannot completely make the human body.
C, H, N, O, S, P, Fe, Ca, Na, Cl, and more that I am forgetting.
Most of the human body is made of C, N, H, and O. Carbon forms different length chains, and many branched compounds as well as many ring shaped compounds with the extra bonds filled in with mostly hydrogen atoms, but also containing the other elements, especially nitrogen and oxygen. Vary the arrangement of the elements and you get a completely different compound. This allows all living tissue, human or not, to be made from just a few elements. Bones must have calcium,, phosphorus and some more stuff. Blood must have iron.

Can elements be created in the body?
No, it is impossible. It is impossible for elements (matter) to be created by a human. The only new elements that are formed are in the center of stars where atomic nuclei merge. The human body does, however, take many elements and form numerous compounds.
How can only six elements make up all the different compounds in the human body?
answer here... carbon,potassium,magnesium,water,hydrogen and calcium
What is the only organ that can in the human body?
body
Does human growth hormone cause infertility?
i bet it does because the body can only make enough hormones
What elements make up elements of sugar?
Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen are the only elements that make up sugars.

Amount of material in a body?
Almost 99% of the mass of the human body is made up of six elements: oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, and phosphorus. Only about 0.85% is composed of another five elements: potassium, sulfur, sodium, chlorine, and magnesium. All 11 are necessary for life.
Why do you only have 25 elements in your body?
According to the Wikipedia entry on Chemical makeup of the human body there are about 60 elements present, although some of them are not present to more than a few dozen micrograms. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_makeup_of_the_human_body As to the question why there are not more, there is no definitive answer.
How many parts make a human body?
You only need to know two parts, the penis and vagina
Does human growth hormone cause infertility?
i bet it does because the body can only make enough hormones
Is americium in the human body?
Americium can be in the human body only as the result of an undesired contamination.
What elements make up elements of sugar?
Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen are the only elements that make up sugars.
Does einsteinium have a use in the human body?
Einsteinium is used only in nuclear physics laboratories: for the preparation of mendelevium (and possible other super-heavy elements), calibration of an alpha spectrometer mounted on a lunar probe, etc.
How many craniums does the human body have?
Cranium is your skull. The human body has only one skull.
Does periodic table of elements has something to do with trace elements in human body?
Yes. It is very interesting to note that the elements with atomic number from 24 to 30 are very important trace elements in human body and probably for all animal and plant cells. So you have Cromium (24), Manganese (25), Iron (26), Cobalt (27), Nickel (28), Copper (29) and zinc (30) as trace elements. In this Iron is generally not considered as trace element. But then requirement of Iron per day is only 3 mg.
