Answer to Question 1

C
The structural components of cells composed of glycerol, fatty acids, and phosphorus are called phospholipids.

Answer to Question 2

Fats are classified as energy and organic nutrients and make up the most concentrated source of energy in the diet. The functions of fats are to assist in absorption of fat-soluble vitamins, to improve the flavor of food and provide a feeling of satiety, to protect and help to maintain the position of body organs, to insulate the body, and to serve as a major component of cell membranes and myelin sheaths.
