Vedclass · Answer

(D) Lipids are a diverse group of hydrophobic molecules. Cholesterol,ergosterol,and cortisone are all steroid derivatives. Steroids are characterized by a tetracyclic carbon skeleton (gonane nucleus). While fatty acids contain a $-COOH$ group,they are distinct from the complex steroid lipids listed in the options. None of the options provided (Cholesterol,Ergosterol,Cortisone) contain a $-COOH$ group in their basic structure. Therefore,the correct answer is $D$.

Column $X$	Column $Y$
$(1)$ Short-chain saturated fatty acid	$(P)$ Oleic acid
$(2)$ Long-chain saturated fatty acid	$(Q)$ Crotonic acid
$(3)$ Short-chain unsaturated fatty acid	$(R)$ Butyric acid
$(4)$ Long-chain unsaturated fatty acid	$(S)$ Palmitic acid
