What is the chemistry of living things?

Answer 1

Biochemistry is the chemistry of living things, focusing a lot on macromolecules (carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleotides), and metabolic and catabolic reactions. Metabolic reactions break down complex molecules into small parts that can be reassembled by catabolic reactions into other molecules that our bodies can use.

Answer 2

The four basic chemicals that make up living things is water(h20),carbon dioxide(6C02) oxygen(02) and last but not least glucose(C6H12060)

I think the way to formulate the answer to this question is to break down the "chemicals" and list the actual elements that make up 99.9% of all matter, both life supporting and inert matter. People are suprised to learn that the list is as short as it is. That short list is as follows:

Carbon

Hydrogen

Nitrogen

Oxygen

phosphorus

Sulfur

Answer 3

Chemical composition of living organisms is the collections of inanimate molecules(carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, phosphorus etc.) that constitute living organisms their interactions with another to maintain life and solely governed by physical and chemical laws governing the non living universe.

Answer 4

There are many hundreds of thousands of different living things out there. And there are tens of thousands of chemical compounds present in living things. There is nowhere you can look to find all those chemical compounds listed.

Answer 5

Living things are made up of complex molecules such as proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and carbohydrates. These molecules are built from a combination of elements like carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, and sulfur. Chemical reactions within living organisms involve processes such as synthesis, breakdown, and energy transfer to support life functions.

Answer 6

It is mostly composed of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms (along with many others also), but living matter is far to complex to summarize here!

Answer 7

CHON carbon, hydrogen, Oxygen, and Nitrogen.

Answer 8

atoms, electrons, neutrons

Answer 9
