Lipids
Lipids are essential macromolecules that play a vital role in various biological processes. This guide explores the structure and function of lipids, their types, and their importance in energy storage, signaling, and cell membrane formation. We discuss the building blocks of lipids, including fatty acids and glycerol, and the types of lipids, including triglycerides, phospholipids,…

Endoplasmic Reticulum
The Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) is a vital organelle in eukaryotic cells, playing multiple crucial roles. From protein synthesis, folding, and modification to lipid metabolism and calcium storage, the ER ensures the cell’s proper functioning. The Rough ER, adorned with ribosomes, synthesizes proteins, while the Smooth ER is responsible for lipid synthesis and detoxification. Additionally, the…
