- Carbon - Wikipedia
In most stable compounds of carbon (and nearly all stable organic compounds), carbon obeys the octet rule and is tetravalent, meaning that a carbon atom forms a total of four covalent bonds (which may include double and triple bonds)

- 5. 3: Carbon Cycle - Biology LibreTexts
Key Points Carbon is present in all organic molecules; carbon compounds contain large amounts of energy, which humans use as fuel The biological carbon cycle is the rapid exchange of carbon among living things; autotrophs use carbon dioxide produced by heterotrophs to produce glucose and oxygen, which are then utilized by heterotrophs
