What are the two parts of a fatty acid?
If you mean triglycerides which is the fat most people talk about then its glycerol and fatty acids.
What 3 fatty acids bind with glycerol to make triglyceride?
Glycerol has 3 OH groups and a fatty acid has one carboxyl group. One mole of Glycerol reacts with 3 moles of fatty acid to give 3 moles of water and one of the glycerine tri-ester - more commonly called a triglceride.
What are the component of phospholipid?
Fatty acids , Glycerol , phosphoric acid and nitrogenous base are components of phospholipid.
Are fats acid ketones ethers esters or alcohols?
Fats are esters of fatty acids and glycerin (propane-1,2,3-triol).
What are precursor lipids?
they include fatty acid"glycerol"steroids"fatty aldehydes" ketone bodies
In the triglycerides molecules shown below what are the three molecules attached to the glycerol molecules?
FATTY ACIDS APEX
What is the most common building blocks of lipids?
Fatty acids and glycerol
What two molecules combine to form lipids?
glycerol and carboxylic acid combines to form a lipids.
What has glycerol and 3 fatty acid?
This is a description of the general class of macromolecule called a triglyceride.
Triglycerides are molecules consisting of one 3-carbon compound called?
A glycerol molecule and three fatty acid molecules.
What is considered a component of lipid?
Fatty acid, glycerol.
What is the end product of fat digestion called?
Simple sugar, amino acid, fatty acids, or fatty acids and glycerol
What 2 types of molecules are needed to form a fat molecule?
To form a molecule of fat, the two types of molecules that are needed are glycerol and fatty acid. One glycerol molecule attaching itself to three molecules of fatty acid will give one molecule of fat.
What is the difference between a fat and a wax?
Chemically, a wax is a type of lipid that may contain a wide variety of long-chain alkanes, esters, polyesters and hydroxy esters of long-chain primary alcohols and fatty acids. They are usually distinguished from fats by the lack of triglyceride esters of glycerin (propan-1,2,3-triol) and three fatty acids.Fats (and oils) are triglycerides (or triacylglycerols): they consist of glycerol combined with three fatty acid molecules. The fatty acids are linked to the glycerol by ester links.Waxes are esters of an alcohol other than glycerol and a single long chain acid.See related links for more information.
Triglycerides are composed of what?
1 glycerol molecule and 3 fatty acid molecules.
What are the two parts of a fatty acid?
If you mean triglycerides which is the fat most people talk about then its glycerol and fatty acids.
What molecules is made of glycerol and fatty acid?
lipids
