Answer:
Macronutrients: water, fat, carbohydrates, protein
Micronutrients: minerals, vitamins

Explanation:
The six types of nutrients humans need are water, fat, carbohydrates, protein, minerals, and vitamins.

Macronutrients are nutrients we need in large amounts (macro- means big).
Micronutrients are nutrients we need in small amount (micro- means small).

Consider what you eat in a day, you (should) be getting all of these.

It's recommended you have about 8 cups of water a day, which is a large amount.
Fat and carbohydrates are used as sources of energy and are consumed in large amounts.
Proteins (meats, nuts) used to build muscle are also eaten in large amount.

Minerals and vitamins have recommended intakes of milligrams (mg) which is a very small amount. They are found in traces in our food. For example, you would not fill your entire palm with calcium and eat it. You only need small amounts of calcium (probably in your milk).

When you are cold, your muscles begin to contract involuntarily and cause you to shiver. why do you think this occurs? how does
DanielleElmas [232]
Shivering occurs when the core temperature of the body begins to decrease which would threaten normal body function. Shivering is a response by the body to bring back temperature back to homeostasis. Trembling is the continual involuntary contraction of muscles. Muscle activity releases heat that warms up the body. This is the reason why we sweat during physical activities as the body sheds excess heat generated by the muscles in order to maintain the homeostatic body temperatures of 37 degrees centigrade.
