Question
Chapter 2, Problem 19RQ
Summary Introduction
To determine: The four major classes of organic compounds in the body.
Introduction: The study of human body begins at the chemical level of organization. The study of chemical level involves the study of atom, matter, molecules, and elements. Any substance that contains carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen is said to be an organic substance or organic compound. Due to carbon’s ability to catenate, all other elements are bound or linked to the carbon atom. These organic compounds are said to be the building blocks of the cells. In addition to this, some organic compounds also have other elements like sulphur and phosphorous.

Humans consider themselves amazingly clever and innovative, constantly developing "new" ways of altering the world around us. As material consumption has increased, many have turned to the ideas of recycling and reuse as a means to minimize some negative aspects of our modern consumerism. Mother Nature though is the ultimate innovator and, more importantly, the ultimate recycler.
