A
Main source of energy & provide structural support
B
Store energy, provide and steroids

D
stores, transmits, & communicates genetic information
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Proteins are responsible for nearly every task of cellular life, including cell shape and inner organization, product manufacture and waste cleanup, and routine maintenance. Proteins also receive signals from outside the cell and mobilize intracellular response.

Detailed explanation-2: -Some proteins function as enzymes, i.e., proteins that catalyze specific biochemical reactions. Enzymes facilitate biochemical reactions and speed them up enormously, making them as much as a million times faster. There are thousands of enzymes, and each type facilitates a specific biochemical reaction.

Detailed explanation-3: -Provide Structure. Structural proteins are a type of protein responsible for cell shape and providing support to major structures, such as hair, skin, and bones. Regulate Body Processes. Proteins regulate many processes within the body. Transport Materials. 19-Oct-2021

Detailed explanation-4: -Building Tissues and Muscles. Protein is necessary in building and repairing body tissues. Hormone Production. Hormones are chemicals produced by glands in one part of the body that help coordinate activities and communicate with other areas. Enzymes. Immune Function. Energy.
