Living organisms depend on tiny quantities of metals to carry out essential biological processes such as breathing, DNA transcription, and energy production. These processes have relied on metals since life first appeared in Earth’s early oceans. Many of the enzymes within organisms require metals, particularly transition metals, which occupy a specific space on the periodic table.
