All of the atoms and subatomic particles found in living things occur in nonliving things as well?

Yes, all the atoms and subatomic particles found in living things are also present in nonliving things. Living organisms are made up of the same basic building blocks as inanimate objects, such as carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, and nitrogen. The arrangement and interactions of these elements give rise to the complexity of living systems.


Why carbon and nutrogen are always available to living things?

All living things or made up of carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen (basis for organic chemistry).Nitrogen is 80% of the air we breath. Carbon dioxide makes up another good protion.Not sure what you are looking for here.


Is air a living-thing?

No, air is not a living thing. It consists of molecules of gases such as oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide, which do not have the characteristics of living organisms like growth, reproduction, or metabolism.

Hydrogen (H), Oxygen (O), Nitrogen (N) and Carbon (C) The last one is Carbon, not Protein. Protein isn't an element, it is an organic compound. For example Glucose and Fructose are C6H12O6


What are the living things and non living things?

Roughly, the basic principle is that a "living things" can reproduce through cell division and "non-living things" cannot. For example, bacteria can procreate on its own, while viruses cannot. Viruses have to come into contact with the cells of living things to have their genome duplicated and multiply.
