Lipids do give cells membranes a flexible structure that forms a strong barrier between the cell and the cell surroundings. Hence, the lipid surrounds the structure which then forms the shape of the cell.
Are steroids proteins carbohydrates or lipids?
Steroids are lipids. Lipids are organic soluble, instead of water soluble. Their basic structure is that of the steroid ring: four linked rings of carbon.
