The correct answer is "cholesterol." Cholesterol is a type of lipid that is a major component of cell membranes. It helps maintain the fluidity and stability of the cell membrane. It is also used as a precursor molecule in the synthesis of certain hormones, such as cortisol, estrogen, and testosterone. To find this answer, you could have considered the different options and identified cholesterol as the most appropriate choice based on its known functions in cell membranes and hormone synthesis.
