What are some of the ways that carbon is used in organisms for their survival?
Carbon is everywhere. Every energy molecule, fats, sugars, phospholipids, DNA, RNA, and every amino acid has it and therefore every protein. almost every molecule in you has carbon.
Does every atom contain carbon O2 and H20?
No; each atom is specific only for the isotopes of a chemical element. * Carbon is a a chemical element. * Oxygen is a a chemical element; O2 is the symbol of the diatomic molecule of oxygen. * H2O is the chemical formula for the molecule of water.
Why is it important that each receptor protein binds to only one signal molecule?
because every receptor has specific shape on it, which binds with specific molecule.
Is protein an element or a compound or a homogeneous mixture or a heterogeneous mixture?
A protein can not be an element, because every protein must contain at least four elements: carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen. A pure protein is a compound, but it may be mixed either homogeneously or heterogeneously with other molecules that are so chemically similar that they are difficult to separate.
What element is responsible for the huge diversity of molecules of organic compounds?
In every molecule of an organic compound, the principal atoms are the carbon atoms inside it.
Is Every molecule of water is different from every molecule of sugar?
yes
Why is protein production necessary?
Proteins provide structure for living organisms. They are also catalysts for almost every biochemical reaction. Without protein catalysts, it could take years for a single sugar molecule to be broken down in a cellular environment.
What element do all do all organic compounds have?
Every organic molecule contains carbon atoms.
What atom is considered the building blocks of every molecule that is essential to life?
Carbon is the correct element owever, hydrogen, oxygen, nirtogen and phosphorus are also very important.
Molecule of water?
A molecule is when one or more atoms are chemically combined. This is generally done with more than one element. The water molecue has two atoms of hydrogen to every one of water. This is indicated by the little 2 in H2O.
What does the nucleus of every element contain?
Every nucleus of every element contains at least 1 proton. Every element except hydrogen also contains neutrons.
What is dietary iron?
Iron is a mineral that is vital to your health. It is in every one of your cells, primarily linked with protein in the oxygen-carrying molecule hemoglobin. Your body contains approximately 4 grams of iron.
