What group of organic compounds contain fatty acids?
Lipids are the group of organic compounds that contain fatty acids. Lipids include fats, oils, phospholipids, and steroids, and they play important roles in energy storage, cell structure, and signaling in living organisms.
Does cholesterol have any fatty acids?
No, cholesterol is a lipid molecule itself and does not contain fatty acids. Cholesterol is a sterol molecule, while fatty acids are long hydrocarbon chains with a carboxylic acid functional group.
Liquid fats called oils contain?
it contains mostly unsaturated fatty acids it contains mostly unsaturated fatty acids
Why do oils contain fatty acids?
because your a fatty
Is carboxylic acid the same as volatile fatty acids?
No, carboxylic acids are a broader class of organic compounds that contain a carboxyl functional group (COOH), while volatile fatty acids (VFAs) are a specific subset of carboxylic acids that are short-chain fatty acids with a low molecular weight and high volatility.
Do fatty acid and glycerol both contain a carboxyl group?
No, only fatty acids contain carboxyl groups.
How are amino acids different from fatty acids?
Short Answer is: fatty acids lack Nitrogen atoms. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. They are made up of the elements carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen. They have the functional groups carboxyl (COOH) and amine (H2N). Fatty acids or LIPIDS - [fats from animals, oils from plants] - are the building blocks of triglycerides. They are made of of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and DO NOT contain nitrogen. They have the functional groups carbonyl (HCO) and carboxyl (COOH).
Unsaturated fatty acids that have changed to saturated fatty acids are called?
Hydrogenated fatty acids.
Are fatty acids with double bonds saturated or not?
Fatty acids containing double bonds are unsaturated fatty acids as they still contain sp2 carbon atoms within them.
Chemical that contain carbon and hydrogen are called?
Hydrocarbons
Do fatty acids have nitrogen?
No. Fatty acids are made of Carbon, Oxygen and Hydrogen.
Fatty acids containing at least one double or triple covalent bond is called?
Monounsaturated fatty acid = ONE double or triple covalent bond Polyunsaturated fatty acid = TWO OR MORE double and/or triple covalent bonds.
