Lipids tend to be hydrophobic, nonpolar, and made up mostly of hydrocarbon chains, though there are some variations on this, which we'll explore below. The different varieties of lipids have …

Some lipids such as steroid hormones serve as chemical messengers between cells, tissues, and organs, and others communicate signals between biochemical systems within a single cell.

And we're gonna study that thoroughly as we go more into biology. So hopefully this gives you more appreciation of what a lipid is and the different types of lipids.

Übersicht zu Lipiden, einschließlich Fette und Öle, gesättigte und ungesättigte Fette, Triglyceride (Triacylglycerole), Phospholipide und Steroide.

Lipids, commonly associated with fats, are a group of biomolecules with low water solubility. Lipids are essential for storing energy, transmitting signals, and creating cellular membranes.

Lipid-anchored proteins (also known as lipid-linked proteins) are proteins located on the surface of the cell membrane that is covalently attached to lipids embedded within the cell membrane.
