Lipids
Fat is unsaturated when their molecules are able to bond to other biomolecules in the body. These biomolecules can break apart the fat for digestion. In saturated fats, the biomolecules cannot bond to the fat, so it does not break up, and it simply takes up space or passes through the body without doing anything.
Fat is a store of energy. very simple
No, fat is not a nucleic acid. Fat, known scientifically as lipids, are molecules that store energy and provide structure to cell membranes. Nucleic acids, on the other hand, such as DNA and RNA, are molecules that store genetic information and are crucial for protein synthesis.
Kinetic energy is not specifically associated with fat molecules themselves, but rather with the movement of molecules in general. In the context of fat molecules, kinetic energy can refer to the energy associated with their molecular motion, such as vibration and rotation. As temperature increases, the kinetic energy of these molecules also increases, affecting their behavior in biological systems and processes like metabolism.
The human body stores extra energy in the form of fat molecules. Excess energy from food is converted into triglycerides, which are then stored in fat cells throughout the body for later use when energy intake is low.
yes it does
Fat is used to store energy. Carbohydrates.
Food stores fat. Fat is an energy source of the body.
Animals usually store excess energy in fat cells as fats.
They store fat and energy
Fat molecules store energy, cushion vital organs, and provide insulation against heat due to their high energy content and ability to be stored in adipose tissue throughout the body.
Carbohydrates are stored as complex sugars. The larger molecules are called starch and bigger than that is cellulose.
