Cellulose is used primarily for maintaining structure in plants. Commercially valuable carbon polymers of animal origin include wool, cashmere, and silk. Plastics are made from synthetic carbon polymers, often with oxygen and nitrogen atoms included at regular intervals in the main polymer chain. The raw materials for many of these synthetic substances come from crude oil. </p><p>The uses of carbon and its compounds are extremely varied. It can form <a href="/wiki/Alloy" title="Alloy">alloys</a> with iron, of which the most common is <a href="/wiki/Carbon_steel" title="Carbon steel">carbon steel</a>. Graphite is combined with clays to form the 'lead' used in pencils used for writing and drawing.
