(D) Living organisms are composed of various complex organic and inorganic compounds. To synthesize these essential components (such as proteins,nucleic acids,carbohydrates,and lipids),organisms must acquire basic raw materials from their environment. These raw materials consist of various molecules and elements (like $C, H, O, N, P, S$,etc.) which are then processed through metabolic pathways to build the structural and functional components of the body.
