At the atomic level, is there any difference between organic and inorganic matter?

Edited for clarity (and out of a certain sense of frustration) Yes, you can differentiate between inorganic and organic matter, but not below the molecular level. Inorganic matter may be composed of any pure element or compounds formed from different elements. Organic life, on the other hand, is based on a small number of elements, primarily hydrogen, carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, sulphur, and phosphorus.

Simple organic compounds are based on carbon and these go on to form more complex molecules (e.g., DNA). Complex organic molecules and water are the stuff of life, to borrow a hackneyed phrase. While carbon exists in its pure form as an inorganic substance (e.g., diamond, graphite), it is the fundamental building block of organic compounds.

The constituents of organic matter are what separates it from inorganic matter. More.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
