Don’t Lipids Storage Molecules 4marks Dissolve Water/Body Fluids/ 

Lipids are effective storage molecules due to their insolubility in water, lack of impact on osmotic balance, and high energy yield per gram.

Lipids are efficient storage molecules because they are insoluble in water, do not affect osmotic balance, and yield more energy per gram than carbohydrates.

Front Why are lipids useful as storage molecules? ( 4marks)
Back don’t dissolve in water/body fluids/ 

therefore don’t affect osmotic balance of cells/tissues/ 

have higher calorific value than carbohydrates/ can yield more energy per gramme on oxidation/ 

reference to other useful properties/buoyancy/insulation;;;;
