A macronutrient is a type of nutrient that provides energy and supports growth, maintenance, and function of an organism.
Macronutrients are required in large amounts in the diet.

It is the proportion of a nutrient that is available for use by the body after consumption.

Palatability

Palatability refers to the appeal of food to an animal's sense of taste and smell.
In animal nutrition, palatability affects the animal's willingness to consume food.

Micronutrients

A micronutrient is a type of nutrient that is required in small amounts for various bodily functions, but is still essential for overall health.
Micronutrients include vitamins and minerals.
