    Organic chemistry is defined as the chemistry of carbon. For over 200 years, chemists have categorized compounds as either organic if they come from plants and animals, containing carbon, or inorganic if they are extracted from ores and minerals. Organic chemistry specifically studies the structure, properties, and reactions of organic compounds, which contain carbon as their principal constituent atom.

    Biochemistry
    B. Analytical Chemistry
    C. Inorganic Chemistry
    D. Organic Chemistry

    Answer:

    Organic chemistry
     Inorganic Carbon For more than 200 years, chemists have divided
    compounds into two categories. Those that were isolated from plants or
    animals were called organic, while those extracted from ores and
    minerals were inorganic. Organic chemistry is often defined as the
    chemistry of carbon.
