Glycerol is a subunit molecule of lipids, specifically triglycerides. It is a backbone component that combines with fatty acids to form triglycerides, which are a type of fat molecule used for energy storage in the body.
The subunit of triglycerides is glycerol and fatty acids. Triglycerides are composed of one glycerol molecule bound to three fatty acid molecules.
All triglycerides contain glycerol (glycerin).
Glycerol is not a subunit of nucleotides. Glycerol is a subunit of triglycerides and phospholipids (types of lipids).
Glycerol is a three-carbon compound that is a backbone of triglycerides, which are fats and oils made up of three fatty acids attached to a glycerol molecule. It is also a component of phospholipids, which are important in cell membrane structure. It serves as a source of energy and can be converted into glucose when needed.
B-subunit of the hemoglobin A molecule is not a complete DNA molecule. It contains 4 subunits
The four main organic compounds are carbohydrates (subunit: monosaccharides), lipids (subunit: fatty acids and glycerol), proteins (subunit: amino acids), and nucleic acids (subunit: nucleotides).
The radius of a glycerol molecule is about 4.35 angstroms.
Glycerol
glycerol. Glycerol serves as the backbone to which the three fatty acids are attached in a triglyceride molecule.
3 fatty acis in a glycerol. Fat is composed of one glycerol, thus contaning 3 fatty acids. Good Luck in AP BIO !
