The diversity of life is staggering. Yet the molecular logic of life is simple and elegant: small molecules common to all organisms are ordered into unique macromolecules. Explain why carbon is central to this diversity of organic molecules. How do carbon skeletons, chemical (funcitional) groups, monomers, and polymers relate to this molecular logic of life

Carbon atoms can form four covalent bonds with any chain or ring called functional groups, other atoms, or other carbon atoms. These atoms or groups can have specific properties on a molecule. This property of carbon makes carbon is central to this incredible diversity of organic molecules.

Organisms are made of different macromolecules that are made up of monomers to create these polymers and carbon helps them to bind to make polymers and also helps in breaking to produces monomers and release energy.

after making a punnet square using bv bv bv bv you will find that the ratio will be 9: 7 or a 128.6% probability.

hope this
