Fatty acids are not excreted in the urine because only water soluble substances can be processed into urine, and fatty acids are lipid soluble, not water soluble.

∙ 15y agobecause urine is the wastes that the human body is trying to expel. fatty acids can b found in the small intestine as bile break fat into fatty acids

What chemical is made from ammonia that excreted in the urine?
Our liver converts ammonia into urea. This urea is excreted out in the urine.
What are the monomers of triglyceride?
1 glycerol and 3 fatty acids so the monomers basically are glycerol and fatty acids
Are essential fatty acids polyunsaturated fatty acids?
Yes, and also monounsaturated fatty acids. The saturated fat is the bad fat.
How do you separate amino acids from fatty acids?
Amino acids are soluble in water and fatty acids are not.
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.
Which susbstances derived from protein is removed from the blood in the kidneys and excreted in urine?
it is ether amino acids or hemopglobin I think
Does the liver deaminate fatty acids?
Deamination is a process that occurs in the liver that removes the nitrogen-containing portions (-NH2 groups) from the amino acids. These -NH2 groups subsequently react to form a waste called urea. The liver therefore produces urea from amino groups formed by deamination of amino acids. The blood carries urea to the kidneys, where it is excreted in urine.
What is excreted from the kidneys?
Urine is excreted from the kidneys.
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.
When ketone bodies are present in the blood and urine in large amounts it usually indicates increased metabolism of?
fatty acids
When ketone bodies are present in the blood and urine in large amount it usually indicates increased metabolism of?
fatty acids
What are unsaturated fatty acids?
Unsaturated fatty acids are fatty acids that have double bonds in their long carbon chains.
What chemical is made from ammonia that excreted in the urine?
Our liver converts ammonia into urea. This urea is excreted out in the urine.
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 happens to amino acids inside the liver?
They are broken down into urea then carried via blood to the kidneys and the excreted as urine
