Be careful of the terms you use.

Chemicals with the same chemical composition but different structures are called isomers.

The specific example you gave of diamond and graphite suggests that you're looking for different forms of elements that have different physical structures. Those are called allotropes.

The fertilization in<br> frog<br> is called external fertilization.Why?​
spayn [35]
Answer:

External fertilization usually occurs in aquatic environments where both eggs and sperm are released into the water Most external fertilization happens during the process of spawning where one or several females release their eggs and the male(s) release sperm in the same area, at the same time.
Typically, frogs lay eggs. This process usually occurs through external fertilization, where the female releases her eggs from her body into water. Then, the male releases his sperm to fertilize them In this case, the eggs are fertilized inside the female's body before they are released.

Chemicals that make up the living organisms consists of more protein than DNA. This is because proteins have different functions while the function of DNA are limited. Excluding water and fat, the human body is made up almost entirely of protein. Most of the structural framework of the body such as bones, muscle, organs, skin and nails are made up of protein.

Protein are responsible to do most of the work in cells by acting as enzymes, hormones and carriers. Proteins are largely required for the structure, function, and regulation of the body's tissues and organs.
