Nutrients that are needed in large amounts are called Macronutrients.

There are three macronutrients required by humans:

1. carbohydrates (sugar),

2. lipids (fats), and

3. proteins.

Each of these macronutrients provides energy in the form of calories.

Some other macronutrients are: nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), calcium (Ca), sulfur (S), magnesium (Mg), sodium (Na).

Covalent type of bonding joins The two hydrogen atoms are joned by Covalent type of bonding.

In this type of bonding, electrons are shared between the atoms in order to fill there valence shells. Thus sharing of electrons take place in between the hydrogen atoms.

As against malloc(), calloc() needs two arguments, the number of elements  to be allocated and the size of each element. For example,

 p = (int *) calloc (10, sizeof (int));

would allocate space for a 10- integer array. Additionally, calloc() would also set each of this element with a value 0.

Thus the above call to calloc() is equivalent to:

p = (int *) malloc (10 * sizeof (int));

memset (p, 0, 10 * sizeof( int ));
