Do fatty acids and glycerol both contain an amino group?

No - neither of them do.


What end arrangement is present in both amino acids and fatty acids?

Both amino acids and fatty acids contain a carboxyl group at one end of the molecule. This carboxyl group consists of a carbon atom double-bonded to an oxygen atom and single-bonded to a hydroxyl group (OH).


Do glycerol and fatty acids have an amino group?

no amino acid is not a fatty acid this is because of the following reasons 1- due to the difference of functional group i.e Amino acid has two functional groups one is amino group (-NH2) and other is carboxylic group (-COOH) while in fatty acid (-RCOOH) only carboxylic group are present. 2-Amino acid is the sub-unit of protein while Fatty acid is the sub-unit of lipids(FATS).


The functional group ALWAYS found in the following pair of monomeric organic molecules fatty acids and amino acids?

Carboxyl group (-COOH) is the functional group always found in both fatty acids and amino acids. Amino acids have an additional amino group (-NH2) as well.


What end arrangement of atoms is present in amino acids that was also present in fatty acids?

Both amino acids and fatty acids have a carboxyl group at one end, which consists of a carbon atom double-bonded to an oxygen atom and single-bonded to a hydroxyl group (-COOH).


Explain amino fatty acid in the body?

Amino fatty acids are molecules that contain both an amino group and a fatty acid chain. They can be found in the body as components of certain lipids, such as ceramides or sphingolipids, which play important roles in cell membrane structure and signaling. These molecules are involved in various cellular processes, such as cell growth, differentiation, and apoptosis.


Do the two amino acid chains contain the same amino acids?

To determine if two amino acid chains contain the same amino acids, one must compare the sequences of the chains. If both chains include identical amino acids in the same quantities and types, they can be considered to contain the same amino acids. However, even if they contain the same amino acids, differences in sequence or arrangement can lead to different properties and functions. Thus, the presence of the same amino acids does not guarantee similarity in function or structure.


What type of biological compounds contain fatty acids?

Fatty acids are found in the compounds of lipids. The fatty acid lipid compounds can be found in both plants and animals.
