What is the most important role of lipids?
Posted October 12, 2023

Answer

The most important role of lipids is energy storage. Lipids are capable of storing large amounts of energy in a reduced space within adipose tissue cells. Metabolism of these stored lipids yields the energy needed by the muscles and the body to keep all the moving parts functioning smoothly.
