Answer:

D

Explanation:

Proteins are not made of lipids chained together but rather of amino acids chained together. Lipids are made of fatty acid chains joined to various molecules - like glycerol and phosphate that make phospholipids -  Phospholipids make up the cell membrane of most cells. Fats are deposited under the dermis of the skin for insulation and this layer is thicker in animals that live in the cold regions. During starvation, these fats are taken from their reserves and broken down to provide energy for the body.

Subunits sometimes build up to form amacromolecule. which molecule is least likely to be a subunit of a macromolecule?
zloy xaker [14]

The molecule that is least likely to be a subunit of a macromolecule is the steroids.

<h3>What are macromolecules?</h3>

The term macromolecules refers to those molecules that are large and are composed of smaller subunits that are joined together to form the macromolecule. These subunits are called the monomers of the macromolecule that is under study.

We know that the steroids are already large molecules in themselves thus they can not be joined together to form a bigger molecule.

Hence, the molecule that is least likely to be a subunit of a macromolecule is the steroids.
