its equaled to a lipid
triglyceride
1 glycerol and 3 fatty acids so the monomers basically are glycerol and fatty acids
You need 1 glycerol molecule and also 3 fatty acids to to make a lipid.
cholesterol is has 4 rings i dunno if that helps
When 3 long chain hydrocarbonic acids are attached to 1 glycerol molecule then a triglyceride (ester) is formed which in daily life is called natural fat or oil.
first of all, fat is broken down into 3 fatty acids and 1 glycerol molecule. how? a little enzyme, called lipase, is formed in the pancreas(near your liver) like all enzymes, it is shaped to perfectly fit its object, in this case, fat using its awesome 'skill', it separates the fat, and there you have it!
1 glycerol + 3 fatty acids = 1 lipid + 1 water
1 glycerol and 3 fatty acids so the monomers basically are glycerol and fatty acids
1 glycerol molecule and 3 fatty acid molecules.
lipids are made up of 3 fatty acids and 1 glycerol
Subunits of fats are glycerol and fatty acids. Each fat molecule comprises of 1 molecule of glycerol and 3 molecules of fatty acids.
3 fatty acids and 1 glycerol molecules
3 fatty acids and 1 glycerol .
Triglycerides (3 fatty acids + 1 gylcerol)
If 1 of the glycerol's OH groups is attached to a fatty acid it is a monoglyceride. If it is 2 or 3 then it is a di or triglyceride respectively. If there are 3 fatty acids and one gycleride, then the substance is namely a lipid.
No glycerol is a chemical in its own right. It is CH2(OH)CH(OH)CH2OH but an oil can be converted to Glycerol and fatty acids. So it is more correct to ask "Is an oil made from glycerol and fatty acids?' and the answer would be yes.
a fat molecule, or a lipid. Two common fats formed are saturated and unstaurated
The end products of fat digestion are fatty acids and glycerol.
