Yasushi Kishimoto: Life-making substance

Life is chemically known as an organism because the atoms, which are the components of living things, are made up of atoms like carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, etc. These elements combine to form the different structures and functions of living things. For example, proteins are made up of amino acids, the bonds of organic molecules, which are made of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen atoms. They combine in peptide bonds to form proteins. DNA is made up of four bases: adenine, guanine, thymine, and cytosine, which are composed of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen atoms. So, organisms are chemically made up of organic molecules that combine to represent a variety of life phenomena. This book helps us to understand life more deeply by providing a knowledge of life. It's a very interesting story, especially in the case of a number of famous scientists.
