I'm kindof confused on this.
Atoms combine together to form molecules. Atoms of different types are called elements. ... These elements include carbon (C), hydrogen (H), nitrogen (N), oxygen (O), phosphorus (P), sulfur (S), calcium (Ca) and iron (Fe). Nonliving — or inorganic — matter contains these elements too, but in very different proportions.
That is all i can say
