B. Proteins can act as receptors which I guess could be considered a signal, but the rest of the molecules do not. B is incorrect. 

C. Lipids are not water soluble. An example of lipids are fats, and oils. Have you ever tried combining water and oil? Think about salad dressing, it does not mix. C is incorrect.
