Do all organisms use the same process to produce lipids?
No not all organisms use the same process to produce lipids. Lipids are produced in a variety of ways depending on the organism. Generally lipids are produced through either biosynthesis or digestion. Biosynthesis is a metabolic process that involves the building of molecules from smaller components often with the input of energy from ATP. This is the process used by plants and some microorganisms to produce lipids. Digestion is the process of breaking down complex molecules into simpler components. This is the process used by animals to obtain lipids from food sources.In some cases lipids are also produced through chemical processes such as the hydrogenation of vegetable oils.

Which macromolecule is used as main source of energy for a cell?
Carbohydrates are the primary source of energy for the body.They are one of the four types of Macromolecules which are: Carbohydrates, Proteins, Nucleic Acids, and Lipids.
What is the process of biosynthesis?
Biosynthesis (also called biogenesis) is an enzyme-catalyzed process in cells of living organisms by which substrates are converted to more complex products. The biosynthesis process often consists of several enzymatic steps in which the product of one step is used as substrate in the following step.or just....production of a chemical compound by a living organism
What is the intermediate product of glycolysis that can be used in the biosynthesis of lipids?
The intermediate products of glycolysis include glucose-6-phosphate, fructose-6-phosphate, fructose-1 6-bisphosphate, PGAL, bisphosphoglycerate, and PEP. The main intermediate products are fructose-1 6-bisphosphate, PGAL, and PEP.
Where are lipids manufactured?
Lipids are manufactured in the ribosome of the cell. The smooth endoplasmic reticulum also manufactures that lipids to be used in a cell.
