wow im really late but here you go:(
Well, Steroids and fats are both lipids and are both hydrophobic because there both non polar. And Differences are that they serve different functions in the body because fat is used for energy and fat soluble nutrient storage where steroids steroids effect neurotransmission. Hope this helps a lot
