No. Lipids are composed of a "backbone" of glycerol and three carboxylic acid groups of varying length. Both glycerol and carboxylic acids contain only the elements carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.

What is the elements of lipids?
The elements of lipids are carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and sometimes nitrogen.
Which base contains nitrogen?
A Nitrogenous (nitrogen-containing) base is a nitrogen-containing molecule having the chemical properties of a base.It is an organic compound that owes its property as abase to the lone pair of electrons of a nitrogen atom.
Nitrogen makes up a significant part of which class of biological compounds?
It is part of something
How do proteins differ from lipids and carbohydrates?
The difference between Carbohydrates (sugars) and Lipids: 1) sugars disolve in water lipids don't 2) sugars are made-up of subunits that form large polymers and lipids are not and don't form polymers. 3)Lipids store more energy than sugars. 4) sugars form stuctural components (cellulose in plants) and lipids form bountaries like the cell membrane due to hydrophobic hydrocarbons.

What elements is found in proteins but not in carbohydrates and lipids?
Nitrogen is found in proteins but not in carbohydrates and lipids
Which is not true of lipids?
they supply cells with nitrogen
What element is found in proteins but not in carbohydrates and lipids?
None. They all have carbon and hydrogen in common. Proteins also contain nitrogen, but so do many lipids (for example phosphatidylcholine).
Is nitrogen found in carbohydrates or lipids or proteins?
In proteins.

Proteins are nitrogen based while carbohydrates and lipids are not.
