Monomer of lipids?

The monomers of lipids are fatty acids. These molecules consist of a hydrophilic head and a hydrophobic tail, making them essential components of cell membranes as well as energy storage molecules.


What is another lipid found in the cell membrane?

Another lipid found in the cell membrane is cholesterol.


Each lipid molecule is composed of three and one alcohol?

Each lipid molecule is composed of three fatty acid molecules attached to a glycerol backbone, which is the alcohol mentioned. This structure forms triglycerides, a common type of lipid found in the body and in food. Lipids play important roles in energy storage, insulation, and cell membrane structure.


How do Lipid-soluble molecules and gases enter the cell?

diffusion through the lipid bilayer.


Is cholesterol a membrane lipid?

Yes, cholesterol is a type of lipid that is found in cell membranes.


Is cell membrane a lipid?

Yes, the cell membrane is primarily composed of lipids, specifically phospholipids. These lipids form a lipid bilayer that serves as a barrier around the cell, regulating the passage of molecules in and out of the cell.


Why do drugs need to be soluble in oil?

Drugs need to pass into the lipid-cell membrane of cell. to do this they need to be lipid soluble. olis are lipids.


Cell Membranes are contructed mainly of?

Cell membranes are primarily composed of lipids (such as phospholipids and cholesterol) and proteins. These components work together to form a flexible yet selectively permeable barrier that surrounds the cell and regulates the movement of substances in and out of the cell.
