Everything consists of an element?

wood, leaf, meat and ... are called organic materials and are mainly consist of Carbon(C) and hydrogen(H). you can also find oxygen(O) in most of these materials

The earth consists of 91 or 92 natural elements in many varied combinations. There is no one formula for the earth.

Matter (116 Elements known so far) (94 of them found elsewhere in the universe, to date) and anti-matter (the same elements but with anti-protons in the nucleus and positrons instead of electrons circling around the nucleus),\n\nWhat are these Elements called?\n\nIn 1959 Tom Lehrer sang the following ditty to a Harvard audience (to the tune of Gilbert and Sullivan's I am the Very Model of a Modern Major General)\n\n``There's antimony, arsenic, aluminum, selenium, \nAnd hydrogen and oxygen and nitrogen and rhenium \nAnd nickel, neodymium, neptunium, germanium, \nAnd iron, americium, ruthenium, uranium, \nEuropium, zirconium, lutetium, vanadium \nAnd lanthanum and osmium and astatine and radium \nAnd gold, protactinium and indium and gallium (inhale) \nAnd iodine and thorium and thulium and thallium. \n\n``There's yttrium, ytterbium, actinium, rubidium \nAnd boron, gadolinium, niobium, iridium \nAnd strontium and silicon and silver and samarium, \nAnd bismuth, bromine, lithium, beryllium and barium.  \n\n``There's holmium and helium and hafnium and erbium \nAnd phosphorous and francium and fluorine and terbium \nAnd manganese and mercury, molybdinum, magnesium, \nDysprosium and scandium and cerium and cesium \nAnd lead, praseodymium, and platinum, plutonium, \nPaladium, promethium, potassium, polonium, and \nTantalum, technetium, titanium, tellurium, (inhale) \nAnd cadmium and calcium and chromium and curium. \n\n``There's sulfur, californium and fermium, berkelium \nAnd also mendelevium, einsteinium and nobelium \nAnd argon, krypton, neon, radon, xenon, zinc and rhodium \nAnd chlorine, carbon, cobalt, copper, \nTungsten, tin and sodium. \n\n``These are the only ones of which the news has come to Harvard, \nAnd there may be many others but they haven't been discovered.'' \n\n(a few of the 116 eg Seaborgium were discovered after 1959 and are therefore not in the song)\n\nFor a Flash animation of the song go to \nhttp://www.privatehand.com/flash/elements.html

Solid. Most elements at standard atmospheric temperature and pressure are solids. Some of the non-metals are gases, but only Mercury and Bromine are liquids at STP.\n\nEDIT: Gloo-gal, why answer if you don't know or don't care?

Yes an atom is the same as an element.  A single atom is the smallest particle of an element.  There are 118 different elements in the periodic table. For example, a Hydrogen atom is one proton and one electron.  The next element in the periodic table is Helium, it has one proton, one neutron and one electron.  Each of these atom examples represent their own element.  So you see a single atom does represent it's own particular element, as discussed in the Hydrogen and Helium examples.

protein, DNA, almost every cell in every living organism...so, basically, all of life itself.

actually, it's arranged by the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom of each element, though the list in this song: http://www.privatehand.com/flash/elements.html\nis not.

Basic Atomic Structure\n\nThe definitions of atoms and elements seems, at first glance, almost circular: an element is a substance made up of only one kind of atom, and an atom is the smallest particle of an element that retains all the chemical and physical properties of the element. In fact, these two definitions do not form a closed loop, as they would if it were stated that an element is something made up of atoms. Every item of matter that exists, except for the subatomic particles discussed in this essay, is made up of atoms. An element, on the other hand, is—as stated in its definition—made up of only one kind of atom. "Kind of atom" in this context refers to the number of protons in its nucleus.\n\nProtons are one of three basic subatomic particles, the other two being electrons and neutrons. As we shall see, there appear to be particles even smaller than these, but before approaching these "sub-subatomic" particles, it is necessary to address the three most significant components of an atom. These are distinguished from one another in terms of electric charge: protons are positively charged, electrons are negative in charge, and neutrons have no electrical charge. As with the north and south poles of magnets, positive and negative charges attract one another, whereas like charges repel. Atoms have no net charge, meaning that the protons and electrons cancel out one another.

Element talks about the chemical identity.  How one atom is not like another.\nAtom talks about the particular entities.\n\nElement is a general term while atom is a specific term.\nSo you can speack of the element so and so and be describing the substance and its properties for example as that element is in all the universe.

Well clearly it belongs in the Gas element but i dont really understand what you mean by the question though.  :&#92;

oxygen, nitrogen, every fuckin mineral and more on the periodic table...take chemistry

Um, there's over a hundred elements.  I'm not going to name them all for you.  Look at a periodic table.  I'm sure there's one in your chemistry book.

True, molecules exist EVERYWHERE.  EVERYTHING is composed of molecules.  Molecules contain the information and properties of the structure it's building.  For example, your skin has the properties that say "i'm skin and i'm soft" and metal would have properties that say "i'm metal and i'm solid".  Ect.  I hope this kind of helps.\n\n--luis

Carbon, Iron and Nickle. In that order I believe. \n\nThat is of the earth itself... If you mean of the planet including the atmosphere, then its Hydrogen and Helium.

Mostly hydrogen, some helium, and relatively small amounts of various other elements.

mercury\n\nmercury is a liquid metal\nand its composed of potassium, sodium, oxygen, argon, helium, nitrogen, Carbon dioxide, water, and hydrogen

It looks like a stable atom. The protons, neutrons, and electrons are all equal so they do not need to take away from other atoms. The maxium number of protons, neutrons, and electrons vary for each element. For example some elements on the periodic table can only contain 8 protons on the outer shell. Etc. And this question would get better answer if it was in Physics or Chemistry.
