In the triglyceride molecule shown below what molecule are the fatty acids attached to?
Glycerol
What 2 types of molecules are needed to form a fat molecule?
To form a molecule of fat, the two types of molecules that are needed are glycerol and fatty acid. One glycerol molecule attaching itself to three molecules of fatty acid will give one molecule of fat.
What molecule has glycerol and 3 fatty acid?
a triglyceride
What two types of molecules are needed to form a fat molecule?
I think it might be glycerol and fatty acids, according to my biology book.
What is a triglyceride is a common type of lipid contains?
a glycerol molecule and three fatty acids. A triglyceride is a common type of lipid, which contains a glycerol molecule and three fatty acids. Most of the lipids (fats) that humans digest are triglycerides.
What is the size of a glycerol molecule in Angstroms?
The radius of a glycerol molecule is about 4.35 angstroms.
In the triglyceride molecule shown below what molecule are the fatty acids attached to?
Glycerol
What 2 types of molecules are needed to form a fat molecule?
To form a molecule of fat, the two types of molecules that are needed are glycerol and fatty acid. One glycerol molecule attaching itself to three molecules of fatty acid will give one molecule of fat.
What molecule contains glycerol?
Glycerol (glycerin) exist in all triglycerides.
Glycerol is a subunit molecule of a what?
lipid
Glycerol is a subunit molecule of?
lipid
What is a glycerol a subunit molecule of?
Glycerol is a subunit of triglycerides. In a triglyceride, three fatty acids bond to the three carbon atoms of the glycerol molecule.
What is the large molecule of fatty acids and glycerol?
Fatty acids are known as isomers. Glycerol are also isomers.
What are the components of a lipids molecule?
One glycerol molecule and three fatty acid molecule
A triglyceride is made up of three fatty acids and one molecule of?
glycerol(:
What molecule are the fatty acids attached to?
Glycerol
Many lipids are formed when a glycerol molecule combines with compounds?
Many lipids are formed when a glycerol molecule combines with compounds called fatty acids.
