What smaller molecule make up a fat molecule?
The smaller molecules that make up a fat molecule are fatty acids and glycerol. Glycerol is an organic compound and fatty acids are made of chains of hydrocarbons.
In the triglyceride molecule shown below what molecule are the fatty acids attached to?
Glycerol
What is the large molecule of fatty acids and glycerol?
Fatty acids are known as isomers. Glycerol are also isomers.
A triglyceride is made up of three fatty acids and one molecule of?
glycerol. Glycerol serves as the backbone to which the three fatty acids are attached in a triglyceride molecule.
What substances are found in oil?
fatty acids and glycerol
What is a fat molecule made of?
A fat molecule is made of three fatty acid molecules attached to a glycerol molecule. The fatty acids provide energy storage and insulation, while glycerol serves as a backbone for the fatty acids to attach to.
How many fatty acids are attached to glycerol molecule in a triacylglycerol?
Lipid monomers have 2 parts- two or three fatty acids bond to one glycerol
A triglyceride is made up of three fatty acids and one molecule of what?
A triglyceride is made up of three fatty acids and one molecule Glycerol, C3H5(OH)3.
What are subunits of fats?
Subunits of fats are glycerol and fatty acids. Each fat molecule comprises of 1 molecule of glycerol and 3 molecules of fatty acids.
What are the monomers of triglyceride?
The monomers of triglyceride are glycerol and fatty acids. Glycerol is a three-carbon molecule with hydroxyl groups, and fatty acids are long hydrocarbon chains with a carboxylic acid group at one end. When these two components combine through dehydration synthesis, they form a triglyceride molecule with three fatty acid chains attached to the glycerol backbone.
What two molecules combine to form lipids?
Lipids are formed by combining one molecule of glycerol with three fatty acid molecules through dehydration synthesis. This process results in the formation of a lipid molecule called a triglyceride.
How many fatty acids are added to a glycerol molecule to make a triglyceride?
Three fatty acids are added to a glycerol molecule to form a triglyceride molecule. This process involves the removal of three water molecules, resulting in ester linkages between the fatty acids and the glycerol.
