Doesn't matter, it's against the rules to ask for an entire assignment's worth of stuff anyhow.

As above, and more specifically - if you do the actual work (instead of deciding you "cba") and then don't understand something, it's perfectly acceptable and welcome for you to ask "I had to look up what a lipid is, and then say why it's different to a polymer, but I don't understand x distinction between them - can someone explain?".

Just asking for people to tell you a bunch of stuff isn't, and it also doesn't actually help you learn or understand the subject material...

Every question you've asked has an answer from a quick Google search. Whether it is homework or not, self-research is an important skill which comes with independent studying and is vital for many worthy career paths. You won't gain or learn anything from having us do your homework without you attempting it first.

I'm going to assume you're doing A-Level biology as I had to learn these things too, in which case you asking all of these questions without doing the work yourself just demonstrates how much you're going to struggle. Put the effort in yourself.
