Answer:

They supply cells with nitrogen.

Explanation:

Lipids or fats are organic molecules insoluble in water and soluble in certain organic substances, such as alcohol, ether and acetone. Also called lipids or lipids, these biomolecules are composed of carbon, oxygen and hydrogen.

They can be found in foods of plant and animal origin and their consumption must be done in a balanced way.

Lipids do not form cells with nitrogen, but form structural parts of cell membranes, transport fat-soluble vitamins to cells and provide energy to cells.

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

Termites have cellulose-digesting protists in their guts.

Explanation:

Termites are able to access nutrients contained in cellulose due to their mutualistic association with some cellulose-digesting protists such as <em>Trichonympha</em> and M<em>ixotricha</em>. The protists produce cellulase in addition to other glycolytic enzymes that work together to convert cellulose to malate.

The malate produced is further metabolized to produce $CO_2$ , hydrogen, acetate and energy in the form of ATP.

The protists get sheltered in the termite's gut in return.
