All life's structures share a common element:
carbon.
The carbon-containing molecules of life range from
simple structures
of just a
few atoms
to
complex constructions
of
several million atoms.
Some of these molecules function as sources of
energy
, others as
tools
and
machinery
, and still others as
storage
for
massive amounts
of
information.
These
carbon-based molecules
are made and function in a
specific sequence.
