Essential nutrients
These are the organic compounds present in the food that provide nourishment essential for the development and growth of our body. Nutrients not only provide us with the required energy to carry out various biological processes but are also the building blocks for repair and growth in our bodies.
Vitamins
The vitamins are organic molecules required in low concentration for the proper functioning of the body. They cannot be generated in the organism and are taken into the body through the diet. The lack of proper vitamins results in diverse deficiency disorders. They are thus called essential nutrients. The important vitamins are vitamin A, vitamin B complex, vitamin C, vitamin D, vitamin K, and vitamin E.

- it is a polar, negatively-charged amino acid
- it is a non-polar, negatively-charged amino acid
- it is a polar, positively-charged amino acid
- it is a non-polar, positively-charged amino acid
- it is a non-polar, uncharged amino acid
Amino acids are the organic molecule composed of amino group (NH2), an acidic carboxylic group (COOH) and an organic R group and they are referred to as the building blocks of protein. Molecules of amino acid will join together and thus forms a short polymer chains or longer chains which are called polypeptide or proteins.
