Are elements in the human body in their pure form?

These elements exist as compounds.


Can elements be created in the body?

No, it is impossible. It is impossible for elements (matter) to be created by a human. The only new elements that are formed are in the center of stars where atomic nuclei merge. The human body does, however, take many elements and form numerous compounds.


How can only six elements make the human body?

Six elements cannot completely make the human body. C, H, N, O, S, P, Fe, Ca, Na, Cl, and more that I am forgetting. Most of the human body is made of C, N, H, and O. Carbon forms different length chains, and many branched compounds as well as many ring shaped compounds with the extra bonds filled in with mostly hydrogen atoms, but also containing the other elements, especially nitrogen and oxygen. Vary the arrangement of the elements and you get a completely different compound. This allows all living tissue, human or not, to be made from just a few elements. Bones must have calcium,, phosphorus and some more stuff. Blood must have iron.


How important are elements in our body?

Very important, out body is made of compounds, which are in turn made of elements.


What are four elements found in most compounds of the human body?

The four most abundant elements in the human body are:oxygen: 65%carbon: 18%hydrogen: 9.5%nitrogen: 3.2%There are many more elements than those listed, such as calcium, phosphorus, potassium, sulfur, sodium, chlorine, and magnesium.https://www.thoughtco.com/elements-in-the-human-body-p2-602188

Why are there more nonmetals than metals in the human body?

Human body is organic in nature. Organic compounds are formed mostly of carbon, nitrogen, oxygen and hydrogen. So you have these elements in your body in very high proportion.


How are people made of gas?

The human body contains many chemical elements, including hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen, which in their pure form are gases (at normal temperature and pressure). However, these elements are present in the human body in the form of compounds which are either solid or liquid; no part of the human body is actually made of gas.
