Detailed explanation-1: -Nutrients are chemical compounds in food that are used by the body to function properly and maintain health. Examples include proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals.
Detailed explanation-2: -For most people, the difference between a solid and liquid is easy to discern-liquids move, they flow, they take the shape of whatever they are put in. Solids on the other hand, are rigid and don’t slosh around.
