There is one functional group in a triglyceride molecule: ester group.
Three.
Three water molecules will be removed to form a triglyceride composed of three fatty acid chains and one glycerol molecule. One molecule of water is removed for each bond between a fatty acid and the glycerol molecule, for a total of three water molecules removed.
If a fatty acid has a completely single-bonded carbon chain with as many hydrogen atoms as possible bound to the chain, it is refered to as a "saturated" fat. It is literally saturated with hydrogen atoms. If the chain has one or more double bonds, those double bonds reduce the number of hydrogen atoms, and so that is an "unsaturated" fat.
Fatty acids synthesis starts with acetyl-CoA and builds up by the addition of two carbon units. The synthesis occurs in the cytoplasm in contrast to the degradation (oxidation), which occurs in the mitochondria. Many of the enzymes for the fatty acid synthesis are organized into a multienzyme complex called fatty acid synthetase. The major sites of fatty acid synthesis are adipose tissue and the liver
If two monosacharides are together, this then means it is classified as a disacharide. However, if it has many more than just two monosacharides 'joined together', then that means it is classified as a polysacheride. Fat cell structures are commonly known as triglycerides, and they consist of fatty acid chains and glycerol.
Amino acid = Smallest building block of proteins; 20 of them. In this order. Amino acid < dipeptide ( two peptides ) < polypeptide (many peptides ) < Protein
when fat releases energy is it in a unsaturated fatty acid chain

There is three fatty acid modules in a triglyceride which is the main component in fat.
Three water molecules will be removed to form a triglyceride composed of three fatty acid chains and one glycerol molecule. One molecule of water is removed for each bond between a fatty acid and the glycerol molecule, for a total of three water molecules removed.
There are three ester bonds in a triglyceride molecule. These ester bonds form when three fatty acid molecules each react with a glycerol molecule, resulting in the formation of the triglyceride.
Lard, which is comprised of Fatty acid chains bound to a glycerol is comprised of many covalent bonds.
1. 3 fatty acids are attached to it.
You need 1 glycerol molecule and also 3 fatty acids to to make a lipid.
3
It can be done all in one synthesis. However, there are 3 OHs on glycerol and thus 3 fatty acids required in total to build the triglyceride. There are thus 3 reactions in total that take place but all in one synthesis. This is similar to 3 molecules of NaOH reacting with one molecule of phosphoric acid.
No, chitin is a polysaccharade (a polymer made of many saccharide, or sugar, monomers). Fats are composed of triglycerides, where are fatty acid chains combined with a glycerol molecule.
3 fatty acis in a glycerol. Fat is composed of one glycerol, thus contaning 3 fatty acids. Good Luck in AP BIO !
