Answer:

Carbon is the only element that can form so many different compounds because each carbon atom can form four chemical bonds to other atoms, and because the carbon atom is just the right, small size to fit in comfortably as parts of very large molecules. Having the atomic number 6, every carbon atom has a total of six electrons.

1.) Compare the roles of oxygen and carbon dioxide in autotrophs and heterotrophs. Which organism is an oxygen consumer and carb

wariber [46]

Oxygen is used by both autotrophs and heterotrophs to release energy from glucose (as we know, the bonds between organic compounds can be used to release energy) in a process known as cellular respiration. Carbon dioxide, however, is predominantly used in autotrophs to perform photosynthesis because they cannot get their food any other way. The type of organism that is both an oxygen producer and carbon dioxide consumer is an autotroph. This is because they release oxygen during photosynthesis and require carbon dioxide to perform photosynthesis.
