Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Phospholipids are a subgroup of lipids. Other major types of lipids are fatty acids, sphingolipids, sterol lipids, and prenol lipids. Lipids are organic compounds that are readily soluble in the nonpolar solvent (e.g. ether) but not in a polar solvent (e.g. water).
Detailed explanation-2: -Major phospholipids include phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylinositol (PI), phosphatidic acid (PA), cardiolipin (CL), sphingomyelin (SM) and phosphatidylserine (PS).
