Lipids are organic macromolecules that serve a variety of purposes. What is the most important role of lipids?
To store energy
What are three organic molecules that are important to life?
The three MOST IMPORTANT organic molecules are Carbohydrates, Lipids, and Proteins.... i believe.. xD
Why are the compounds classified as lipids?
OK lipids do not suck as answered previously....The compounds called lipids are grouped together because they share one important trait: They have little or no affinity for water. The hydrophobic behavior of lipids is based on their molecular structure. Although they may have some polar bonds associated with oxygen, lipids consist mostly of hydrocarbons. Smaller than true (polymeric) macromolecules, lipids are a highly varied group in both form and function. Lipids include waxes and certain pigments, but we will focus on the most biologically important types of lipids: fats, phospholipids, and steroids.
The three most abundant classes of nutrients are?
Protein, carbohydrates and lipids
What are the three most common lipids?
un/saturated fats. steroids. cholesterol.

Is table sugar an organic compound?
the three of the most important types of organic compounds: carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins. Sugars such as glucose and fructose are carbohydrates
Is fruit the most important food group?
Fruit is not the most important food group. Grain is the most important food group.
What are the three most common lipids?
un/saturated fats. steroids. cholesterol.
What are subunits of Lipids?
Lipids are a group of hydrophobic chemical structures comprised of fats, oils, steroids, phospholipids, and waxes. The basic subunits of most of these are fatty acids, which have a hydrocarbon backbone and a carboxyl group at one end.
Do lipids play a important fact in the cell Membrane?
Yes - they make up most of it.
