What are the importance of organic compounds to life?

Answer 1

You are made of organic compounds. That is pretty important. Organic compounds are also important because they make up what we eat, much of what we wear,etc.

Answer 2

Disclosed is are methods of generating chemical structures of putative non-peptide inhibitors of biologically-active receptors. The method includes constructing a model of a receptor-ligand complex using empirical three-dimensional data of the receptor-ligand complex. The conformation of the binding site between the receptor and the ligand is then altered to yield novel conformations not exhibited in either the native receptor or the bound receptor. These conformations are then used to generate models of non-peptide chemical structures that are complementary in structure to the altered conformations of the binding site. In this fashion, chemical structures of putative non-peptide inhibitors of the altered conformation are revealed.

Answer 3

Organic compounds are vital to the existence of life. They are part of plants' and animals' physiology. They are responsible for chemical processes in the body, especially in regard to cell and tissue creation and regeneration.

Answer 4

Inorganic compounds, especially water, are essential to all life forms known. Also, for photosynthetic plants, carbon dioxide, generally considered inorganic despite containing carbon, is vital.

Answer 5

Organic Chemistry is defined as the Chemistry of the compounds of carbon. Carbon has the unique ability [along with silicon] to form chains - for example -C-C-C-C-C-C-etc.

One step up from Organic Chemistry is Biochemistry, these same principles apply.

Without organic compounds and Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry, there would be no foundation upon which to build Living Organisms.

Organic compounds come in a wide variety of forms and functions, all of which are important.

Answer 6

Organic compounds are essential for life as they form the basis of biological molecules such as proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. These molecules are involved in vital processes like energy production, cell structure, and genetic information. Without organic compounds, life as we know it would not be possible.

Answer 7

Alkane, Alkene, Alcaho and carboxyllic acid

Answer 8

Carbon, adenine, guanine, thiamine, cytosine

Answer 9

• all living things are made of and make organic compounds
• some organic compounds are not made by living things
