Subunits that make up lipids?
fatty acids and steroids
What are fatty acids phospholipids and steroids synthesized primarily on?
golgi complex
What are the Primary types of lipids found in human?
Fatty acids, triglycerides, phospholipids, eicosanoids and steroids. I do believe.
Which molecules are types of lipids?
Nonpolar organic molecules are lipids...including tryglycerides, phospholipids, steroids, waxes, and pigments.
What are lipids make of?
Lipids are composed of monomers called Glycerol and Fatty Acids. The four classes of lipids are triglycerides, waxes, phospholipids, and steroids.
What is the most common building blocks of lipids?
Fatty acids and glycerol
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.
What are unsaturated fatty acids?
Unsaturated fatty acids are fatty acids that have double bonds in their long carbon chains.
Which type of lipid does NOT contain fatty acids as one of the component parts?
Lipid is a heterogeneous group of compound which are soluble in organic solvents but in soluble in water. Important groups of lipids are fats , oils, triacyl glycerol; phospholipids, waxes and terpenes including steroids and carotenoids.This last group ie carotenoids and steroids is the lipid that are not made up of fatty acid but they are composed of isoprenoid units, their examples are cholestrole and red pigment carotin of carrots.
What is the polymer of lipids?
Fatty Acids are the polymers or building blocks of lipids
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 are the monomers of triglyceride?
1 glycerol and 3 fatty acids so the monomers basically are glycerol and fatty acids
