Compound and Element that is essential for life.
Biological Molecule
used by animals to stored energy
glycogen
Accounts for 10% of the mass of the human body
Hydrogen
Approximately makes up 3% of the body.
Nitrogen
Helps in cellular respiration by which the body releases energy in glucose
Carbon
Give skeletal systems it rigidity and strength
