Which statement is true about the ability of carbon to participate in hydrogen bonds in living organisms?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Carbon's electronegativity (ability to attract electrons) is relatively low, which means it cannot strongly attract hydrogen atoms to participate in hydrogen bonding. While carbon can indirectly participate in hydrogen bonding through its interactions with polar, hydrogen-bonding partners like oxygen or nitrogen, it does not directly participate in hydrogen bonding with hydrogen atoms.
