Detailed explanation-3: -Lipids that are important to our discussion include fats and oils (triglycerides or triacyglycerols), fatty acids, phospholipids, and cholesterol. Fats and oils are esters of glycerol and three fatty acids.
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.
Detailed explanation-5: -The three main types of lipids are triacylglycerols (also called triglycerides), phospholipids, and sterols.
