macro and micro (trace)
D
Low biological and High biological
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -There are two kinds of minerals: macrominerals and trace minerals. You need larger amounts of macrominerals. They include calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, sodium, potassium, chloride and sulfur. You only need small amounts of trace minerals.

Detailed explanation-2: -Minerals are grouped as macrominerals and trace minerals. Macrominerals, such as phosphorus and calcium, are found in larger quantities in the body and are needed in larger amounts in the diet. Trace minerals, such as iron and zinc, are found in small quantities in the body and are needed in small amounts in the diet.

Detailed explanation-3: -Trace minerals, also called micro minerals, are essential minerals that the human body must get from food, but, unlike macro minerals, we only need a very small amount. Even though trace minerals are needed in tiny doses, they are still crucial to our health and development.
