Detailed explanation-1: -Lipids are a class of macromolecules that are nonpolar and hydrophobic in nature. 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.

Detailed explanation-2: -Lipids are energy-rich organic, non-polar molecules. These organic compounds contain carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms that form a framework for the structure and function of living cells. They are insoluble in water and only soluble in nonpolar solvents as water is a polar molecule.

Detailed explanation-3: -There are four classes of biological molecules: fats, carbohydrates, proteins, and nucleic acids. Of these, fats produce the most energy per gram at a whopping nine calories per gram. Carbohydrates and proteins produce less than half of this, at only four calories per gram.

Detailed explanation-4: - Organic molecules with a basic structure composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen that often bond to form fatty acids and glycerols. Lipids have more carbon-hydrogen bonds than carbohydrates, thus contain more energy per gram than carbohydrates or proteins, which explains why fats have a greater caloric value.
