the elements which are very essentiel for the growth of plants are called macro nutrients.these nutrients are required in fairly large quantity show they aare called macronutrients.
Macro nutrients = six nutrients are required by the plants in large quantities and hence these are called macro nutrients. Micro nutrients = iron , manganese , zinc , copper , molybdenum , boron and chlorine are the micro nutrients which used in small quantities.
there are sixteen nutrients needed by plant ,three nutrients it gets from air, water, soil and from other thirteen nutrients ,six are required in large amount called macro-nutrients and seven are required in small amount are called micro-nutrients .
Nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K) the three secondary macro nutrients: calcium (Ca), sulfur (S), magnesium (Mg)
Macro

Most foods contain a mix of nutrients, which are classified as either macro-nutrients, or micro-nutrients. The macro-nutrients are carbohydrates (including fiber), fats, protein, and water, which we need in relatively large amounts. Carbohydrates, fats, and protein provide the structural material of cells, as well as energy (calories). Micro-nutrients include vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and phytonutrients, including antioxidants and pigments, which we need in relatively small amounts compared to macro-nutrients.
The nutrients which are required in small quantities are called micronutrients e.g. iron, molybdenum, boron, chlorine, zinc etc. Similarly, the nutrients which are required in large quantities are called macronutrients e.g. carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, magnesium, potassium etc.
Carbs, Fat and Protein
Macronutrients make up the bulk of what we eat, they are the energy-giving component of what we eat, like the proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. Micronutrients are the components of what we eat that are essential to good health. Examples, are vitamins and minerals.
Carbohydrates, proteins, fats, etc.
