Carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids.
Organic compounds are everything in living organisms. They make up all important parts of the cells, including DNA, the molecule of life.
No. Lipids are organic compounds found in living organisms
Yes but only when they form organic molecules that form living organisms or when the molecules are important to certain organisms.
Organic compounds are so called because they are associated with living things. It was thought that they could only be made in living organisms because they required some type of vital force. We now know that isn't necessarily true, they are just complex. Individual organic compounds got their names in many different ways, though we now try to name them systematically.
Many "organic" compounds are created by living tissue, and living things (on Earth, at any rate) always are based on carbon.

Not necessarily. Many organic compounds are found in living organisms, but not all of them. nore are all the compounds in an organism organic. Any compound that contains bonds between carbon and hydrogen is classified as organic, whether or not it is of a biological origin.

water, believe it or not H20 doesn't contain carbon - is not organic

Coal and many organic compounds are formed from carbon.Plants releases carbon dioxide.
