Molecules of opposite chirality would be toxic to the ones that currently exist on earth right? So that would mean that the L molecules already in existence on earth would be toxic to the newly introduced D molecules? I'm not really sure about this, anyone have more chemistry/biology background?
question isn't specific enough. it depends on the atoms at the chiral center
muscarine has three stereocenters (aka chirality centers) therefore: 2^3=8 in conclusion, muscarine can have 8 stereoisomers.
Yes, carbon attached with four different group is assymmetry and hence they show chirality.
The molecule must have chirality - an assymetry in which the molecule can't be turned around to look like its mirror image.
Biochirality is the chirality - of biological molecules, especially the study of the genesis of such chirality - the phenomenon by which two biological molecules are symmetrical.
Psicose has four chiral carbon atoms, so it has four chirality centers.

A carbon atom attached to four different groups through sigma bonds is an asymmetric carbon or chiral carbon, this phenomenon is CHIRALITY, it is a basic centre for existing of Enantiomers the stereo isomers.

No, i it is not known by the people.but for the future.
It is a compound that has a non superimposable mirror image, and an asymmetric center.
Chiral intermediate is an atom having totally different groups around it. Carbon atom for example surrouned by 4 different groups.

There are 5 chirality centers, so there are 5^2 (=25) stereoisomers.
