Answer:

Amino acids and lipids have different structures, purposes and functions within the body and are both critical for good health. ... The primary role of amino acids is to form and maintain proteins in the body while lipids serve to provide sources of energy.

Examples of lipids include fats, oils, waxes, certain vitamins (such as A, D, E and K), hormones and most of the cell membrane that is not made up of protein. Lipids are not soluble in water as they are non-polar, but are thus soluble in non-polar solvents such as chloroform.
