Subject: mark, alloc and free functions in C extensions

I have a class A written in C that contains a C structure. I have
defined the functions mark, alloc and free.

I have another class B, written in C, that derives from class A and
adds another piece of C data.

Should the class B define mark, alloc and free functions for both,
class A and class B, C structures?

Or sould the class B care for its own C structure only? Will Ruby's
marking, allocation and liberation mechanism call their respective
functions?

I got confused. Thanks in advance.
