Respuesta :

The think the correct answer is they are not made from living things
I may be wrong but I am sure this is correct

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

  • Organic compounds are defined as the compounds which contain carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Carbon is the main element present in organic compounds.

For example, human body is made up of carbon.

So basically, living species are made up of organic compounds.

  • On the other hand, species which do not contain carbon atoms and are non-living in nature are known as inorganic compounds.

For example, diamond, sulfur, water, nitrogen dioxide etc are inorganic substances.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement they  are not made from living things is true about inorganic compounds.
