Answer 1

Lipids constitute a broad group of naturally occurring moleculesthat include fats, waxes, sterols, fat-soluble vitamins (such as vitamins A, D, E, and K), and others. The main functions of lipids are energy storage, as structural components of cell membranes, and as important signaling molecules.

Answer 2

its uses are:

• they used to store energy as they contain double amount of energy than same amount of any carbohydrate(because they have higher proportion of C-H bonds and low proportion of oxygen)
• lipids are components of cellular membranes in the form of glycolipids and glycoproteins.
• act as water proof material because they are hydrophobic in nature
• they are present in the form of cutin in the cuticle of epidermis of some plants and prevent excessive loss of water
• they provide insulation against heat and cold
• they constitute the exoskeleton of some insects as waxes and provide mechanical protection.
