Why can a compound containing carbon nitrogen and carbon oxygen single bonds can form coordinate covalent bonds with hydrogen but compounds containing only carbon hydrogen and carbon carb bonds cannot?

Carbon-nitrogen and carbon-oxygen single bonds have lone pairs of electrons that can participate in forming coordinate covalent bonds with hydrogen atoms, while carbon-hydrogen and carbon-carbon single bonds lack available lone pairs to participate in such bonding. Therefore, compounds containing carbon-nitrogen and carbon-oxygen single bonds can form coordinate covalent bonds with hydrogen, but compounds with only carbon-hydrogen and carbon-carbon single bonds typically cannot.
