Are carboxyl acids fatty acids?
Yes, carboxylic acids may be considered fatty acids if they have a long hydrocarbon chain with a carboxyl group at one end. Fatty acids are typically carboxylic acids with long hydrocarbon chains found in fats and oils.
What are fatty acids in the tale of a phospholipid molecules are?
Lipids. Fats that you take in from your food is used to build membranes. Membranes can be represented by models such as The Fluid Mosaic Model, which displays the phospholipid bilayr, and other tissues on the membrane.The fatty acids in the tail of a phospholipid molecule are non-polar and hydrophobic.Polyunsaturated fatty acids, Saturated fatty acids, Monounsaturated fatty acidsLauric Acid, Myristic Acid, Palmitic Acid, Stearic Acid, Oleic Acid, Linoleic Acid, Linolenic Acid , Arachidonic Acid
How can biodiesel production take place?
Biodisel is obtained from vegetal or animal fats by transformation in fatty acids esters.

What are the functions of peroxisomes?
The function of Peroxisomes (also no as Micro-bodies) is to break down a long chain of fatty acids. The micro-bodies break the fatty acids down and make it more manageable for the rest of the cells.
Insulin which is released by the pancreas stimulates the?
Insulin stimulates the:Liver to take up glucose, activate glycogen synthesis, shut down glycogenolysis and gluconeogensisMuscles to take up glucose and amino acids (and possibly fatty acids)Adipose tissue to take up glucose and fatty acids (and possibly amino acids)
Can cellular respiration take place without glucose?
Yes, cellular respiration can occur without glucose. While glucose is a primary energy source, cells can utilize alternative substrates such as fatty acids and amino acids to produce ATP. These substrates undergo different metabolic pathways, such as beta-oxidation for fatty acids and deamination for amino acids, to eventually enter the citric acid cycle and oxidative phosphorylation. Therefore, while glucose is common, it is not the sole fuel for cellular respiration.
Are fats acidic?
"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.
What chemical feature distinguishes a saturated fatty acid from unsaturated fatty acid?
The unsaturated ones are the ones with one or more double bonds in the carbon chain, by which they are lacking 2 H atoms per double bond as compared with the saturated fatty acid. The unsaturated ones are in general more 'healthy' with respect to possible cholesterol build up in blood vessels (cardial risks)
