Energy storage.
both are used for energy storage but lipids are fats so they contain much more energy. that is why they are used by animals and carbohydrates are used mainly used by plants. animals need lots of energy in a small space so they can take it with them, but that is not an issue with plants.
In lipid storage diseases, enzymes that would ordinarily break down lipids so that they can be appropriately used are absent. This results in the progressive accumulation of large quantities of these lipids.
Carbohydrates
fat
Lipids, more generally thought of as fat molecules, are used by cells to store energy. They are also an important structure molecule and can be used for signaling.
The organic macromolecule used for the long term energy storage in animals is triglyceride.

Energy in living beings is stored as chemical energy. For long-term energy storage a sugar is used; for short-term energy storage, ATP.
Lipids.
Cholesterol is a lipid. The main functions of lipids include storing energy, signaling, and acting as structural components of cell membranes. "Lipid" is sometimes used as a synonym for fats.
the answer is Lipid
