Whichi element is in all living things and can make long chained molecules?
Carbon.
What are the 4 main molecules that make up living things?
Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen
What do the major types of molecules that make up all living things have in common?
Carbon atoms
What are the properties of life explain each property by giving examples?
1. All living things are made of cells; no real example2. All living things reproduce; cells reproduce by mitosis3. All living things have a lifespan; Organisms must die at some point like days after their birth, or hundreds of years (years)4. All living things respond to stimuli; Ex. Your senses, phototropism5. All living things grow and develop; Trees grow from small seeds to huge organisms6. All living things are highly organized; Atoms make up molecules which make up cells which make up living things
Do non living things have atoms?
no. molecules are inorganic, meaning that they make up nonliving matter. They are not considered organic, or living, because all living matter contains both carbon and hydrogen.Molecules are not alive - they are very simple chemicals. Molecules of different types make up most things, though.
What are 4 large molecules that living things make or use?
Hi
What is the organic molecule that is the basis of all structures?
There is no such molecule that is the basis of all structures. What I think you may mean is what atoms are the basis of organic molecules. In order for a compound to be considered organic, you have to have Carbon - Hydrogen bond/s. Organic molecules make up a considerable percentage of all living things. Some could argue that Deoxyribose nucleic acid may be.
Whichi element is in all living things and can make long chained molecules?
Carbon.
What is the basis for all compounds that make up living things?
Living things are based on compounds of carbon.
What are the 4 main molecules that make up living things?
Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen
What do the major types of molecules that make living things have in common?
they all contain carbon atoms
What do the major types of molecules that make up all living things have in common?
Carbon atoms
Why are so many other living things dependent on plantlike protists?
Because these plantlike protists make the basis of the food web.
What is so unique about carbon that allows it to form the different types of organic molecules that make up living things?
It can bond to itself.
What make living things different from non living things?
Living things are alive.
What three things make things make An ATP molecules?
adenosine triphosphate
