Imagine you have to do a list of materials that you need to create a tent to go camping ⛺️... 
And now... Imagine you need to do a list of materials that you need to build a house 🏠.

... NO... Why? They will have different characteristics because a tent a house have different uses... A tent has to be light... So you can transport it. A house has to be strong, because it stays a the same place for years and years. The materials that we use to create a tent are soft and flexible... And the materials that we use to build a house are strong and hard, they have different properties.
