The two major types of energy used in the body is Chemical Energy where energy is stored in bonds between chemical substrates adn when the bonds are released so is the energy and Electrical Energy where energy comes from the movement of charged particles across or down a cell membrane.
Carbohydrates
chemical energy
Kinetic energy.
what is the type of lipid is used by the body for insulation
Cholesterol
They have many uses, both are used for energy. All your cell membranes have a lipid layer, which is a type of fat.
A lipid that is used for energy storage would be any type of oil. So like peanut oil, canola oil, olive oil, etc. :)
this type of energy is used when the body is put under stress

Some body fat can give off energy. It depends on which type...meaning there are different types of body fat. Of course, some good and some bad. Fat is energy that has been stored for a later time. If you take in a lot of energy (like eat a lot of food), and don't use it up right away (through exercise), your liver will turn that energy into long chains of lipid (glycogen). Carbohydrates are used for quick energy for your body to use, but if unused, the body needs to somehow store that energy, and turns it into "fat". So yes, fat can give you energy--as it is a form of energy.
Mechanical energy, which may originally come from just about any other type of energy. For example, if you push with your muscles, you are converting chemical energy in your body into mechanical energy.

Lipids, or fat, is used to insulate the body and found in all cell membranes. Fats have insulating capacity, but they are bad conductors of heat.
