Multiple Choice

Why is carbon considered a central building block for all living things on Earth?

1

Because it is the most abundant element in the atmosphere

2

Because it is present in both living and non-living matter and cycles through different reservoirs

3

Because it is only found in living organisms

4

Because it never changes its location
