Steroids
are complex structure four connected rings of carbon atoms. They are cholesterol which is in all body cells and used to synthesize other steroids:sex hormones, such as estrogen, and testosterone and several hormones from the adrenal glands.
Waxes
are comprised of an ester of a long-chain alcohol and a fatty acid. Many plants have leaves and fruits with wax coatings to help prevent water loss.
Phospholipids
consist of Glycerol portion and fatty acid chains. Only two fatty acids chains; in place of the third is portion that include a phosphate group. THe phosphate portion is soluble in water [hydrophobic] forms the ''head'' of the molecule, while the fatty acids portion is insoluble in water [hydrophobic] and forms a ''tail''.
Fats
to store energy for cellular activities. Carbohydrates fat molecules are composed of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms.
The tick is considered the vector in the chain of infection.
Generally, vector organisms are organisms that are capable of transmitting disease pathogens from infected organisms to uninfected ones either directly or indirectly as a result of their activities.
Ticks are parasites that feed on the blood of vertebrate animals such as deers and humans. When they feed on the blood of animals with certain infections, the pathogens for such infections are sometimes carried in the guts of the parasites and these are transferred to the bloodstream of the next animal that would be their host.
A good example of this is Lyme disease.

In the
process of the nitrogen cycle.
<span>
The nitrogen cycle is a
biogeochemical succession process of nitrogen that involves: fixation,
ammonification, nitrification, and denitrification. Like any other
biogeochemical cycles. This process undergoes and affects the biological, geometrical
and chemical aspects in the ecosystem and the abiotic and biotic community. Hence,
the nitrogen cycle leads the abiotic component –nitrogen- to contribute to the
biotic community, decomposition and primal production. Further, it becomes an
essential part of the environment because some life components are contains it,
similarly, amino acids, nucleic acids in RNA and DNA. </span>
