Steroids and lipids are primarily synthesized in the smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) of cells. In particular, steroid hormones are produced in specific tissues such as the adrenal glands, gonads, and placenta. Additionally, lipids can also be synthesized in the liver and adipose (fat) tissues, where they are involved in energy storage and membrane formation.
