Lipids are macromolecules which provide insulation. 
<span>A macromolecule is a large molecule. There are four groups of macromolecules: carbohydrates, proteins, nucleic acids and lipids. Lipids consist of glycerol and fatty acids and are constructed from fats, oils, waxes, phospholipids and steroids. A lipid's function is to insulate the body and provide warmth in cold conditions. It can be concluded that a person with very little body fat gets very cold easily and a person with a lot of body fat gets very warm very quickly. </span>

Yeast are more complicated than bacteria. Saccharomyces cerevisiae (the yeast that makes beer, wine and bread, has about 6300 genes and 16 chromosomes.

A human has 46 chromosomes (23 pairs), and has likely around 20,000 genes.
