What do eicosanoids do in the human body?
Eicosanoids are a type of bonded fatty acid in the human body. They derive from omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids. Often eicosanoids help with digestion.
What are the Primary types of lipids found in human?
Fatty acids, triglycerides, phospholipids, eicosanoids and steroids. I do believe.
What are the precursors for synthesis of the eiconsanoids?
The precursors for synthesis of eicosanoids are fatty acids derived from linolenic (omega-3) and linoleic (omega-6) acids. These fatty acids include eicosapentaenoic acid, eicosatetraenoic acid and dihomo gamma-linolenic acid.
The catabolism of fatty acids to produce energy occurs through the process of?
lipolysis
Besides glucose what other kinds of molecules can be used to produce ATP in cellular respiration?
Glycerol (from fatty acids) can be entered into Glycolysis at its 3Carbon stage
What are eIcosanoids made from?

What does Lipase Produce?
Fatty acids and glycerol
On a basic level how does fatty acid oxidation work?
Fatty acid oxidation is the process in which fatty acids are broken down by tissues to produce energy. Fatty acids are the residue left from fats being broken down.
The catabolism of fatty acids to produce energy occurs through the process of?
lipolysis
How do you produce detergent?
a complex mixture of fatty acids and a big bowl chicken fingers
Which fatty acid is converted to arachidonic acid which serves as the precursor to the localized hormones known as eicosanoids?
Arachidonic acid is a 20:4(delta5,8,11,14) derivative fatty acid from linoleic acid. Linoleic and linolenic acids are "essential fatty acids" for mammals and they must be consumed from plant sources. Once consumed, linoleic acid may be converted to other polyunsaturated acids, particularly gamma-linoleic acid, eicosatrienoate and arachidonic acid (or eicosatetranoate) which can be only from linoleic acid.
What is the most common building blocks of lipids?
Fatty acids and glycerol
Besides glucose what other kinds of molecules can be used to produce ATP in cellular respiration?
Glycerol (from fatty acids) can be entered into Glycolysis at its 3Carbon stage
Distinguish between saturated fatty acids and saturated fatty acids?
There is no difference between saturated fatty acids and saturated fatty acids. If you meant saturated fatty acids and UNsaturated fatty acids, then the unsaturated ones are the ones with double (or, theoretically, triple) bonds in the carbon chain.
