Teens & Depression. â 1 Depression is a serious problem today and one of the nationâs leading killers of teenaged boys when the number of cases of suicide it generates are factored into the equation.
The first organic molecules were probably very simple carbon-based molecules made of few atoms. These molecules then combined with other simple molecules to form more complex molecules. Over many years and probably trillions and trillions of chemical reactions, more complex molecules, and more stable molecules, formed.
Organic molecules are those that: 1) formed by the actions of living things; and/or 2) have a carbon backbone. Methane (CH 4) is an example of this. If we remove the H from one of the methane units below, and begin linking them up, while removing other H units, we begin to form an organic molecule.
