Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Lipids, as a class of compounds, are insoluble in water but are soluble in other organic solvents. Examples of such solvents include acetone and ether. Waxes, steroids, phospholipids, and fats are the most common types of lipid groups. Fats have glycerol in addition to three fatty acids.

Detailed explanation-2: -Major types include fats and oils, waxes, phospholipids, and steroids. Fats are a stored form of energy and are also known as triacylglycerols or triglycerides. Fats are made up of fatty acids and either glycerol or sphingosine.

Detailed explanation-3: -The three main types of lipids are triacylglycerols (also known as triglycerides), phospholipids, and sterols.

Detailed explanation-4: -A lipid is any of various organic compounds that are insoluble in water. They include fats, waxes, oils, hormones, and certain components of membranes and function as energy-storage molecules and chemical messengers.
