How does the molecular structure of triglyceride relate to their function in living organisms?

Triglycerides are the most common types of lipids ,they are made from 3 fatty acids joined to a glycerol molecule by an ester link....thus due to the presence of the double bonds the produce twice the amount of energy. Also they are non -polar (insoluble)and are less dense than water so their transmission of energy is rarely disturbed..They are easily transported in the blood stream of animals.
