Answer:

The correct option is : c) Glycerophospholipids

Explanation:

The lipid bilayer of the plasma membrane is composed of glycerophospholipids, sphingolipids and sterols.

The sphingolipids are the derivatives of sphingosine. Whereas, the glycerophospholipids are the derivatives of phosphatidic acids.

Phosphatidic acid are the phospholipids that give one glycerol molecule, one molecule of phosphoric acid and two fatty acids molecules on hydrolysis.
