I know that by definition metabolism is the sum of chemical reactions that happen within each living cell and that provide energy for vital processes.
But I can't really understand what definition is trying to be given in the following explanation about one of the major functions of lipids:

What exactly does metabolically mean here?
Does it mean that lipids are substances from which substances important for sustaining life are made?
