Macromolecules play a critical role in the body's structure and function, divided into categories such as proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and carbohydrates. Proteins, composed of elements like carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen, are essential for bodily structure and can be found in foods like eggs, milk, oats, and chicken.
