Macronutrients are nutrients that the body needs in large amounts, including carbohydrates (sugars), proteins, and fats (lipids are a type of fat). Nucleic acids are not macronutrients. For question 10, macronutrients are carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. Malnutrition despite adequate macronutrients is often due to lack of micronutrients like vitamins or minerals. Essential amino - acids are part of proteins (macronutrients), carbohydrates and fatty acids are macronutrients themselves, and enzymes are not nutrients but biological catalysts.
