Ok first of you need to know what a lipid is. A lipid is a class of organic compounds that are fatty acids or their derivatives and are insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. This includes waxes, steroids etc. Lipids are important for living cells. Together with carbohydrates and proteins, lipids are the main constituents of plant and animal cells. Cholesterol and triglycerides are also considered lipids.

So I would go with C.

Hope I helped. :)

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Epinephrine and norepinephrine are the hormones secreted by the adrenal medulla and are also called adrenaline and noradrenaline, respectively. During stress conditions, the hypothalamus stimulates the preganglionic neurons of sympathetic division.

These preganglionic neurons stimulate the chromaffin cells to secrete epinephrine and norepinephrine to prepare the body for fight or flight response. The increased level of epinephrine and norepinephrine hormones in the blood is called “surge of adrenaline”
