unsaturated
Building blocks of steroids?
Steroids (cholestrols) are another type of lipid found in membranes. Its composition or "building blocks" is a series of four carbon rings.
Does lipid contain carbon?
Both carbohydrates and lipids contain a carboxyl group. They differ in that carbohydrates are formed between a carboxyl and an aldehyde group whereas a lipid is formed between a carboxyl and a hydroxyl group. Amino acids also contain a carboxyl group, though it forms a peptide bond with an amino group.
What kind of lipid does each carbon atom in a lipid's fatty acid chain join with another carbon atom by a single bond?
saturated
What is the simplest form of a lipid?
Lipids are strands of hydrocarbons, H atoms covalently bonded to C atoms.
What is the most abundant atom in a lipid?
The most abundant atom in a lipid is carbon. Lipids consist mainly of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms, with carbon being the most prevalent due to its ability to form long hydrocarbon chains in lipid molecules.
What is formed when lipid fat is digested?

What is a polysaturated lipid?
A lipid's fatty acids contain more than one (1) double bond of carbon.
Is a testosterone a lipid?
Yes, Testosterone is a lipid just as many other hormones. More specifically it is a steroid, which are lipid molecules composed of four carbon rings.
