When we say that carbohydrates (CHO) and fats are protein-sparing, it means that when these macronutrients are adequately supplied in the diet, the body can use them for energy instead of breaking down proteins for fuel. This is important because it helps preserve muscle mass and allows proteins to be utilized for their primary roles in building and repairing tissues, rather than being used as an energy source. Essentially, a diet rich in CHO and fats can help maintain protein's critical functions in the body.

What atom is not found in either CHO or fat?

Many atoms are not found in 'CHO or fat.' 'Fat' or lipid is a long molecule made up of a string of carbons which are singly or doubly bonded to hydrogens. CHO I would imagine is made up of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Every element that isn't carbon, hydrogen or oxygen is not found in CHO or fat. I have a feeling that this is not the question you meant to ask though.
