...You're question is a bit unclear. Lipids are among the most, if not the very most, diverse organic compounds in living organisms. They include fats, waxes, oils, and I believe parts of connective tissue. They typically consist of long hydrocarbon chains bonded to a glycerol molecule. I'm a bit rusty on my bio, so I don't know the formula for that. Google works, though :)
