Yes, a triglyceride is a type of fat.
A simple triglyceride contains three identical acyl chains, whereas a mixed triglyceride has more than one type acyl chain.
The three-carbon molecule that has three attached functional lipids is called a triacylglycerol. Triacylglycerols are a type of lipid formed from one glycerol molecule and three fatty acid chains. This molecule is a major storage form of fat in organisms.
Three fatty acids attached to one glycerol molecule is called a triglyceride.
Lipid monomers have 2 parts- two or three fatty acids bond to one glycerol
Fats, waxes, and oils are all considered lipids.
A glycerol molecule and three fatty acid molecules.
Ester bonds. For example, "A triglyceride (TG, triacylglycerol, TAG, or triacylglyceride) is an ester derived from glycerol and three fatty acids."-wikipedia on triglyceride

A balanced equation for the preparation of soap from triacylglycerol is (C18H29O2)3-C3H5O3 + 3KOH -> 3C18H29O2K + HOCH2CH(OH)CH2OH. The acyl portions are all derived from linolenic acid and use potassium hydroxide as the base.
The oil is the triacylglycerol.
Adipose tissue triacylglycerol
Glycerol is the alcohol that form the base of a triglyceride.
Yes, a triglyceride is a type of fat.
A simple triglyceride contains three identical acyl chains, whereas a mixed triglyceride has more than one type acyl chain.
sorry!
Triglyceride is a simple fat, excess of dietary food or unabsorbed food turns into fat and deposits in blood in form of triglyceride.
