What structure in villi absorbs and transports fats?
Lacteal absorbs fatty acids. Glycerol is absorbed by both , blood capillaries and lacteal .
What monomers are used to make up lipids?
Glycerol and 3 fatty acids is the monomer of a lipid.This is also the basic structure of a lipid.
What substances are found in oil?
fatty acids and glycerol
What components make up fat?
glycerol and fatty acids
What is the large molecule of fatty acids and glycerol?
Fatty acids are known as isomers. Glycerol are also isomers.

What substances does the small intestines absorb?
the small intestine absorbs almost all types of foods. if the food is not absorbed here, then it will go out of the body on a free trip. it absorbs proteins (amino acids), fats (glycerol), starch (glucose), sugars. and all other nutrients that are necessary for the body functioning.
What is phosphoglycerides?
if you mean the structure, then its two fatty acids, glycerol , and phosphorylated alcohol.
What are the monomers of triglyceride?
1 glycerol and 3 fatty acids so the monomers basically are glycerol and fatty acids
What are components of fats?
Fat is made up of fatty acids and glycerol. A triglyceride is formed when a glycerol forms with three fatty acids.
What two molecules combine to form lipids?
glycerol and carboxylic acid combines to form a lipids.
What substances are found in oil?
fatty acids and glycerol
Where are the fatty acids and glycerol transported to once absorbed by the lacteals?
A lacteal is a lymphatic capillary that absorbs dietary fats in the villi by the enzyme lipase, resulting in a mixture of fatty acids and monoglycerides.
What is the basic structure of a triglyceride?
gycerol bound to 3 fatty acid is triglyceride..gylcerol a 3 carbon skeleton with a hydroxyl group attached to each carbon, Fatty acid= a caboxyl group attached to a long carbon skeleton the function triglyceride is to store energy in form of fatty acids, most efficient and compact way of storing energy
Why does contraction of the muscles of the esophagus stomach and intestines help in digestion?
These muscles push down the food. the stomach turns the proteins into amino acids and carbs into sugars and fats into glycerol and fatty acids
What is is the monomer of lipid?
Glycerol and 3 fatty acids.
