Lipids are multifaceted in a linear sort of way. What makes them interesting is that they are multifaceted in several different ways.
Length : from 14 to 28 -CH2- monomers;
Saturated and non- : no carbon double bonds is saturated; one -C=C- double bond is mono-unsaturated, two or more -C=C- double bonds is poly-unsaturated.
Three lipids and a glycerol molecule congeal to form a tri-acyl-glyceride.
These are not the most abundant of Cell membrane lipids. Mostly saturated, mono-unsaturated, and [several types of] poly-unsaturated lipid moieties form the foundation of the multifaceted Cell Membrane.
Plus phospholipids (from peanuts) are needed in the membranes of the Brain.

What cells are found in membranes?
Membranes surround cells. There are no cells found in membranes. Membranes are composed mostly of lipids.
Do prokaryote cells contain organelles?
They do but the organelles are not bound in membranes.
These are primary molecules making up plasma membranes in cells?
lipids
What cells to store energy from biological membranes and chemical messengers?
lipids
What are the primary uses for lipids in the cell?
The function of lipids is cells is signaling, and acting as structural components of cell membranes.
What cells are found in membranes?
Membranes surround cells. There are no cells found in membranes. Membranes are composed mostly of lipids.
Which best describes a difference between prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells?
Eukaryotic cells contain organelles that are enclosed in membranes
Do prokaryote cells contain organelles?
They do but the organelles are not bound in membranes.
Do Eukayote cells have membrane bound organelles?
Yes, the organelles in eukayote cells are wrapped in membranes.
These are primary molecules making up plasma membranes in cells?
lipids
Are cells a type of protein?
No, cells are composed of all macromolecules: proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, and nucleic acids. Cells definitely contain protein in the membranes and organelles, but they're not wholly made up of protein or are a type of protein.
What are cells that have internal membranes surrounding organelles?
Animal and Plant cells have internal membranes surrounding organelles. Animal cells have a cell membrane protecting the organelles. Plant cells have a cell membrane as well as a cell wall surrounding organelles.
What cells to store energy from biological membranes and chemical messengers?
lipids
What are the primary uses for lipids in the cell?
The function of lipids is cells is signaling, and acting as structural components of cell membranes.
What cells has the greatest number of different cellular organelles made of membranes?
Plants
Characteristics of animal cells include what?
compartmentalized membranes ( organelles ) and a defined nucleus.
The plasma membranes of all known cells are largely composed of what class of macromolecules?
lipids
