• Like little magnets

What is the function of a phospholipid?

• Makes up the cell membrane
• To provide fast, available energy for the body
• Helps cells communicate with each other
• Stores long term energy and keeps animals warm

What is the purpose of steroid?

• stores energy long term in animals, and insulates
• communication between cells in the body
• provides fast, available energy for the body
• makes up cell membranes
