Explanation:
Nutrients can be divided into 2 categories: macronutrients, and micronutrients. Macronutrients are those nutrients that the body needs in large amounts. These provide the body with energy (calories). Micronutrients are those nutrients that the body needs in smaller amounts.
Macronutrients include carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids; whereas micronutrients include minerals (e.g., sodium and chloride), trace minerals (e.g., iodine and copper), vitamins (e.g., carotenoids and sterols), and organic acids (e.g., citric acid).
