These elements combine in a vast number of molecules involved in life processes.
Detailed explanation-2: -Nucleic acids such as DNA and RNA contain carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphorus (CHON P).
Detailed explanation-3: -Proteins. Proteins include enzymes, antibodies, and many other important compounds in living things. They contain the elements carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and sulfur. The functions of proteins are very numerous.
Detailed explanation-4: -What elements does carbon bond with to make up life’s molecules? Carbon can bond w/ many elements, including hydrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, sulfur, carbon, and nitrogen to form molecules of life. Carbon has the ability to form millions of different large and complex structures.
