Answer:
C. H and O
Explanation:
Almost 99% of the human body's mass is made up of six elements: oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium and phosphorus, in that order.
Element Symbol % in body
Oxygen O 65.0
Coal C 18.5
The human body is composed of 60% water, that is, H2O.
<span>If it loses that 1 electron (0 electrons, 1 proton, 1 neutron) it become an ion that is positively charge because it has more protons than electrons. [Ignore the neutrons] </span>
<span>If it gains an electron (2 electrons, 1 proton, 1 neutron) it becomes an ion that is negatively charge because it has more electrons than protons </span>
<span>A molecule - when 2 or more "different" elements combine or when 2 or more of the "same" elements combine </span>
<span>1 proton 1 electron <----- that is considered to be neutral </span>
<span>3 protons, 3 electrons <----- neutral </span>
<span>5 protons 5 electrons <----- neutral </span>
<span>6 protons, 5 electrons <-- positive ion [more protons than electrons] </span>
<span>5 protons, 8 electrons <--- negative ion [more electrons than protons] </span>
They are alike because they are the simplest form of life and the carry genetic information.
