How many chemicals constitute a cell ? |
|
Answer» The cells of living things are made mainly of four elements: carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen. They make up 96% of the atoms that are in living things, so they would be considered major chemicals other elements that only make up a few percent of cells can top the list. If major also means essential for life, then “trace elements” are very major though they make up just 0.5% of the atoms in an organism |
