The correct answer is a - Lipid

Lipids are not considered as macromolecules because unlike proteins, carbohydrates and nucleic acids which polymers, lipids are composed of a single unit made up a glycerol backbone to which two or three fatty acids are linked.

Lipids are not polymers made up of individual subunits called monomers. They contain only  one molecule and are not macromolecuels.

Examples of lipids include waxes, steroids, phospholipids and detergents. Lipids are generally hydrophobic and insoluble in water.

The classification levels of three organisms are listed in the cart:
mel-nik [20]

The correct answer is D. House cats, lions, and tigers belong to the same class and family.

Explanation:

Taxonomy classifies animals using different levels such as kingdom, family, order, species, etc. that show the features of the organism and its relationship or similarities with others. In the chart presented, the only level that is different for the three animals is the last one, which is the species level because in this the cat is classified as Domesticus, the lion as Leo, and the tiger as Tigris. This implies the other levels including the class (Mammalia or mammal) or family (Felidae) is the name of the three animals. This makes the last answer correct and shows these three animals are closely related.
