These elements are required for the formation of proteins, nucleic acids, enzymes, and other essential molecules in living organisms. Therefore, the statement that living things require only about 40 elements is false.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    An electric field is a region around an electric charge where it exerts a force on other charges. It is not dependent on the charge being in motion, but rather on the presence of the charge itself. Therefore, an electric field can exist even when the electric charge is at rest. This makes the statement "An electric field is an electric charge at rest" true.
