What is the function of steroids/sterols to a cell. ​

Sagot :

I wanted to be with you alone

And talk about the weather

But traditions I can trace against the child in your face

Won't escape my attention

You keep your distance via the system of touch

And gentle persuasion

I'm lost in admiration, could I need you this much?

Oh, you're wasting my time

You're just, just, just wasting time

Something happens and I'm head over heels

I never find out until I'm head over heels

Something happens and I'm head over heels

Ah, don't take my heart, don't break my heart

Don't, don't, don't throw it away

A steroid is an organic molecule having four rings organized in a certain chemical configuration that is physiologically active. The two main biological roles of steroids are as signaling molecules and as critical elements of cell membranes that affect membrane fluidity. Numerous steroid species can be found in fungi, animals, and plants. Lanosterol (opisthokonts) or cycloartenol are the two sterols used to make all steroid compounds in cells (plants). Squalene, a triterpene, is cyclized to produce lanosterol and cycloartenol. The most known examples of steroids acting as signaling molecules are steroid hormones. Steroids and phospholipids are also parts of cell membranes. Cholesterol and other steroids make membranes less fluid.
