4. What are two examples of lipids? Fats and oils.
5. At what stage of matter are they held at in room temperature? Fats are solid at room temperature, and oils are liquid at room temperature.
6. What are foods of each example? Fats: butter, tard (animal fat); Oils: Olive Oil, Corn Oil (plant fats)
8. What makes up cell membranes (type of lipids)? Phospholipids and cholesterol make up cell membranes.
9. What are steroids? They are a type of hormone that can cross cell membrane directly into cells.
