If I absolutely had to answer with two atoms, I'd say carbon and hydrogen. This is because carbon is the absolutely indispensible atom that is the absolute basis of all organic molecules, forms they're backbones, and it is carbon's ability to make multible chemical bonds that allows for complex molecular structures. Secondly, hydrogen because any time a carbon molecule has a free chemical bond (not bound to another carbon or some other atom), it bonds to hydrogen. Hydrocarbons are entirely carbon and hydrogen.
I must say however that for some organic molecules (e.g. carbohydrates) I would have to say there are three atoms which are the basis: carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.

What carbon atoms are the organic molecules that are complex molecules of life built on framework?
Organic molecules do contain carbon, and the "complex molecules of life" are organic molecules.I can't quite figure out just how you're trying to put those two concepts together in your question, so I'm not positive that I've addressed what you were attempting to ask.
How are atoms and molocules related?
Molecules are collections of two or more atoms.
Which organic molecule contains two or more atoms?
Every single organic molecule contains two or more atoms.
If two atoms of nitrogen completely react with six atoms of hydrogen to form two molecules of ammonia which best describes the number of hydrogen atoms present in the two molecules of ammonia?
Two molecules of ammonia contain 6 hydrogen atoms.
Spontaneous formation of organic molecules does not happen today because they are?
Molecules form from the combination of two or more atoms. Matter is neither created or destroyed, just moved around by chemical reactions.
How many atoms do organic molecules have?
Two or more.
How are organic molecules made?
an organic molecule is any molecule that contains carbon atoms in a covalent bond where two or more atoms share electrons.
What carbon atoms are the organic molecules that are complex molecules of life built on framework?

Do elements consist of atoms or molecules?
Atoms. Molecules are two or more atoms together.
What are the total number of atoms in two oxygen molecules?
There are 4 oxygen atoms in two oxygen molecules.
How are atoms and molocules related?
Molecules are collections of two or more atoms.
Which organic molecule contains two or more atoms?
Every single organic molecule contains two or more atoms.
If two atoms of nitrogen completely react with six atoms of hydrogen to form two molecules of ammonia which best describes the number of hydrogen atoms present in the two molecules of ammonia?
Two molecules of ammonia contain 6 hydrogen atoms.
How many atoms of hydrogen are in two molecules of benzene?
Two atoms.
What are molecules made up of?
Molecules are substances consisting two or more atoms.
Spontaneous formation of organic molecules does not happen today because they are?
Molecules form from the combination of two or more atoms. Matter is neither created or destroyed, just moved around by chemical reactions.
How atoms and molecules are different?
A molecule is consisted of two or more atoms bonded together.
