What is the chemical composition of whale oil?
Whale oil is not classified as on oil, but rather a (liquid) wax. These organic compounds will be composed of esters of fatty acids and fatty alcohols, and they will vary from whale to whale. Use the link to learn more.
What are unsaturated fatty acids?
Unsaturated fatty acids are fatty acids that have double bonds in their long carbon chains.
Which organelle is responsible for break down of fatty acids to sugars?
Whereas the evidence for conversion of sugars to fatty acids is well established in biochemistry, no such evidence for the reverse, i.e. conversion of fatty acids to sugars, is compelling. So, I would say that there is NO organelle known to be responsible for break down of fatty acids to sugars.
What organic chemical is composed of glycerol and three fatty acids?
A lipid is composed of glycerol and three fatty acids (usually long-chain).
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.
Is there carbon in fatty acids?
Of course, fatty acids are organic compounds and they can not exist without carbon.
Is carbon in fatty acids?
Of course, fatty acids are organic compounds and they can not exist without carbon.
Which organic molecule is related to lipids?

What type of organic molecule that are acids?
Fatty acids , amino acids , acids in Kreb's cycle .
What group of organic compounds contain fatty acids?
Fatty acids contain carboxyl groups. The functional group of fatty acids is -COOH. There are 2 types of fatty acids called saturated and non saturated.
What type of organic molecule is fatty acids?
lipid
What is the chemical reaction for dehydration of fatty acids?
Triglycerides are formed by the dehydration reaction of fatty acids and glycerol.
Is acids inorganic or organic?
An organic molecule is any molecule that contains carbon. As fatty acids are primarily made of carbon, they are most definitely organic.
What is this chemical reaction fatty acids plus triglyceride plus water?
