Correct Answer: B
Solution :
[B] Bloor (1943) first time used the term 'lipid'. These are the compounds of C, H, O but the ratio of H and O is more than 2 : 1 that is the ratio of oxygen is lesser as compared to carbohydrates. Lipids are insoluble in water but soluble in non-polar solvents such as benzene, chloroform etc. Commonest lipids occur in a cell is phospholipid. It contains a hydrophilic (polar) head and a hydrophobic (non-polar) tail. |
