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>

Natali5045456 [20]
For starters, humans have feelings and cells. If we get hurt we can feel things such as pain unlike a tent. If you hit a tent there is nothing it feels because it has no feelings. We have cells all through our body and rocks don't. They are made of other stuff but not cells.
