Which of the following is an important characteristic of lipids? they dissolve in water. they are nonpolar. they are converted to hormones. they can be linked into long chains.

Lipids are not aromatic hydrocarbons made from carbon and nitrogen.

They are nonpolar, they can't be dissolved in water but yes on nonpolar organic solvents.

Sometimes they can be associated with an OH to be quite hydrophilic like on phospholipids.

Steroids hormones get synthesized from cholesterol is an important characteristic of lipids.

Most of the lipids are consider long chains, for example, phospholipids and triglycerides.

The correct answer is the option "They can be linked into long chains."

Explanation:

Hello!

Let's solve this!

Lipids are one of the organic molecules made up of long chains made up of carbon, oxygen, hydrogen and nitrogen (CHON).

They are non-polar, although they can be joined with some other molecule to have a hydrophilic part.

They are made up of long chains.

We conclude that the correct answer is the option "They can be linked into long chains."
