Is a triglyceride a protein?
no. triglyceride is a lipid.
What is a simple triglyceride and A mixed triglyceride?
A simple triglyceride contains three identical acyl chains, whereas a mixed triglyceride has more than one type acyl chain.
Does nonpolar means hydrophobic or hydrophilic?
Nonpolar means hydrophobic.
Are lipids hydrophobic or hydrophobic?
All Lipids are hydrophobic: that's the one property they have in common. This group of molecules includes fats and oils, waxes, phospholipids, steroids and cholesterol.
What part of the fatty acid is hydrophilic?
A fatty acid consists of the polar acidic -COOH functional group and the non-polar alkyl CnH2n+1 chain, which in most cases, n=15-18. A triglyceride consists of distinct hydrophillic (glycerol) and hydrophobic (fatty acid) sections, but to answer your question, the fatty acid itself has a hydrophillic part which is the -COOH group.
A type of lipid in the cell membrane?
triglyceride saturated fat and cholesterol
What are the two main parts of a triglyceride?
A head and a tail. The head is hydrophilic (polar) and the tail is hydrophobic (nonpolar) .
Is a triglyceride a protein?
no. triglyceride is a lipid.
What is a simple triglyceride and A mixed triglyceride?
A simple triglyceride contains three identical acyl chains, whereas a mixed triglyceride has more than one type acyl chain.
Is cholesterol hydrophobic or hydrophobic?
Cholesterol has many hydrophobic side chains and a single hydrophilic side chain. Because it contains both hydrophilic and hydrophobic groups, it is amphipathic.yes cholesterol Hydrophobic , choestol not soluble in water
Is vitamin A hydrophobic or hydrophilic?
hydrophobic
What is hydrophobic and how do you determine if a molecule is hydrophobic?
Hydrophobic means that the molecule is repelled by water. You can tell if a molecule is hydrophobic by the way the atoms are arranged.
What alcohol found in a triglyceride?
Glycerol is the alcohol that form the base of a triglyceride.
Does nonpolar means hydrophobic or hydrophilic?
Nonpolar means hydrophobic.
Are lipids hydrophobic or hydrophobic?
All Lipids are hydrophobic: that's the one property they have in common. This group of molecules includes fats and oils, waxes, phospholipids, steroids and cholesterol.
The interior of the phospholipid bilayer is?
Hydrophobic.
Is the phosphate group hydrophobic or hydrophilic?
hydrophobic
