Answer 2

Answer:

true, no other element can form bonds to an extent of carbon

Explanation:

carbon forms extensive bonds because of it being tetra valent and its catenation properties, since carbon requires 4 electrons to complete its octate, it can neither lose or gain electrons to form ionic bond hence it shares electrons with other atoms of carbon or other elements to form covalent bods
