Answer and explanation;
Carbon is so important in the formation of complicated molecules in that;
-Carbon can form up to four covalent bonds, and it can form reasonably strong bonds with nitrogen, oxygen, and other different types of atoms.
-Carbon also has an almost unique ability to form long chains with C−C linkages, and along the chain there can be regions of different reactivity.
Also C−C bond is unaffected by water, and therefore, if for example a cell, can be isolated from the aqueous medium.

Answer;
A. Carbon can form four strong covalent bonds.
Explanation;
Carbon can form up to 4 covalent bonds, and it can form reasonably strong bonds with nitrogen, oxygen, and other heteroatoms.
Carbon also has an almost unique ability to catenate: to form long chains with
C − C linkages, and along the chain there can be regions of different reactivity (by the presence of functional groups).
