What is the chemical reaction for dehydration of fatty acids?
Triglycerides are formed by the dehydration reaction of fatty acids and glycerol.
What is the result when fatty acid is hydrolyzed?
Fatty acids are merely carboxylic acids with long hydrocarbon chains. The hydrocarbon chain length may vary from 10-30 carbons (most usual is 12-18). Fatty acids cannot be hydrolyzed further.
What part of the body fatty acids absorbs?
Fatty acids are usually ingested as triglycerides, which cannot be absorbed by the intestine. They are broken down into free fatty acids and monoglycerides by pancreatic lipase, which forms a 1:1 complex with a protein called colipase, which is necessary for its activity.
Difference between non esterified fatty acids and free fatty acids?
Essentially, there is no difference. Some prefer to use the term non-esterified fatty acid (NEFA) compared with free fatty acid (FFA) because many find the term FFA confusing with respect to fatty acids that circulate within the bloodstream which are 'bound' to albumin, but not esterified to another chemical moiety compared with intracellular fatty acids that are not 'bound' to albumin which are also not esterified to another chemical moiety.
What are the component molecules that form together to make a triglyceride?
Glycerol and 3 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.
When there is insufficient carbohydrates to complete metabolism of fatty acids fatty acids are formed into?
Acetyl CoA and then ketones
What is the chemical reaction for dehydration of fatty acids?
Triglycerides are formed by the dehydration reaction of fatty acids and glycerol.
Can fatty acids make body proteins?
god can make fatty acids and jesus himself cannot
What cannot be form in fatty acids?
ketones
Are waxes organic acids?
Waxes are esters formed by condensing organic fatty acids and long-chain (fatty) alcohols. So they contain organic acids, but are not acids themselves.
What two products are formed when triglycerides are completely digested?
What_are_the_products_of_hydrolysis_of_oil
What are nutrients that are formed from fatty acids and glycerol called?
calories
Macromolecules that are formed when a fatty acid joins a glycerol?
Triglycerides (3 fatty acids + 1 gylcerol)
How is triglycerid formed?
When 3 fatty acids are attached to a glycerol backbone.
Which bond formed between fatty acids and glycerol?
ESTER BOND
What cannot be used to make body proteins?
Fatty Acids
