that are required for the construction of the body. There
are various kinds of substances that help in the
construction of the human body.

nitrogen, hydrogen, oxygen, carbon and sulphur. Without
protein life is impossible. The name protein is derived from
the Greek work protos which means first. It is available in
the vegetables or meat pr eggs we eat.

electricity is required to run a fan. This is provided to
the body by two kinds of fuel known as carbohydrates and
