Steroids are like hormones that greatly influences bodily activities mostly in growth and function. These functions may modify, change and control one’s body organs or system that’ll vary in form, shape or structure due to these hormone-like compounds and also, it can affect one’s psychological and neurological state.

A lipid's function is to insulate the body and provide warmth in cold conditions. It can be concluded that a person with very little body fat gets very cold easily and a person with a lot of body fat gets very warm very quickly.

It is important that the phospholipid bilayer is both hydrophobic in the surface and hydrophilic inside to control and manage the incoming organic compounds mainly water from exceeding the needed amount or destablizing the concentration established by the cells.
