Answer 2

1. A. Insulation and long-term energy storage
2. A. Insulation and long-term energy storage

Step-by-step explanation:

Lipids, also called fats, are organic biomolecules composed mainly of molecules of hydrogen, oxygen, carbon. Other elements, such as phosphorus, are also part of the lipid composition. The main function of lipids is to store long-term energy.

Proteins are the most abundant organic macromolecules in an organism and the most important as well, performing numerous distinct functions that guarantee the survival of the individual and acting in practically all cellular processes. Proteins do not store energy, but participate in the growth and repair of muscles and tissues, serve as enzymes to accelerate chemical reactions and help to form antibodies to boost the immune system.
