"Fatty Acids" take on two 'forms' - 'fats' are from animal sources and are solid at room temperature whereas 'oils' are from plant sources and are liquid at room temperature.
Fats and oils are classified as Lipids.
Fatty acids are not carbs (carbohydrates).
No, Triglycerides are the triesters of Glycerol with long chain Carboxylic acids.
The carboxyl group is at one end of the fatty acid chain.
Acetic acid is a compound which has the molecular formula CH3COOH and it is not a fatty acid.
Ethanoic(Acetic) Acid is a Carboxylic (Fatty) Acid.
Organic acids are fatty acids.
The use of the word ' Fatty' has been superceded by 'Carboxylic'.
yes
Some are.
No, only fatty acids contain carboxyl groups.
Fatty acids contain carboxyl groups. The functional group of fatty acids is -COOH. There are 2 types of fatty acids called saturated and non saturated.
Such compounds are Fatty acids (long chain monocarboxylic acids)
carboxyl group (cooh)
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).

carboxyl group
Fatty acids contain carboxyl groups. The functional group of fatty acids is -COOH. There are 2 types of fatty acids called saturated and non saturated.
The carboxyl group
Carboxyl group
They all have a hydrocarbon chain with a carboxyl group on the end.
Such compounds are Fatty acids (long chain monocarboxylic acids)
carboxyl group (cooh)
Most lipids are composed of some sort of fatty acid arrangement. The fatty acids are Fatty acids are composed of a chain of methylene groups with a Carboxyl functional group at one end.
No, only fatty acids do contain a carboxyl group -C(=O)(-OH) (they are alternatively called: carboxylic acids). Glycerol contains three hydroxylic groups -C(-OH), propane-1,2,3-triol
Glycerol and fatty acids both have carboxyl heads, but i am not sure about their purpose yet.
