I could be wrong but a vitamin is not a lipid. A lipid is a fat. Vitamin A could be a fat soluble vitamin, but I am not sure if it is. According to my Chem book, Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin and is classified as a lipid. The lab book says to puncture a vitamin A capsule or use cod liver oil, so my guess is it is a triacylglycerol, i.e. an oil.

What type of lipid is crisco?
Crisco is a vegetable shortening made from partially hydrogenated vegetable oil. It is primarily composed of triglycerides, which are a type of lipid.
Liposomes are characteristic of what type of lipid?
Liposomes are characteristic of phospholipids, which are a type of lipid that consists of a hydrophilic head and two hydrophobic tails. This structure allows phospholipids to form lipid bilayers that can encapsulate drugs or other molecules within the liposome structure.
What type of lipid is stearic acid?
Stearic acid is a saturated fatty acid, which is a type of lipid. It is commonly found in animal fats and some plant oils.
Is an fatty acid A lipid?
Yes, a fatty acid is a type of lipid. Lipids are a diverse group of compounds that includes fats, oils, phospholipids, and sterols, while fatty acids are the building blocks of most lipids.
What is the term for a type of lipid that has one double bond between two of its carbon molecules?
The term for a type of lipid that has one double bond between two of its carbon molecules is called a monounsaturated fat.
What type of soluble vitamin is vitamin A?
Vitamin A is lipid soluble.
What is soluble in a lipid?
For example vitamin E.
What is a lipid soluble?
For example vitamin E.
Cholesterol is an example of what type of lipid?
Sterol is the type of lipid
Is cholesterol a carbohydrate or lipid?
It is a type of fat, a lipid.
Is Vitamin C liposoluble?
what are vitamin hydrosolubles and liposolubles
What is lipid deficiency?
vitamin D deficiency causes lipids
Is Cholesterol carbohydrate protein or lipid?
It is a type of fat, a lipid.
Vitamin c is soluble in water and vitamin d is lipid soluble. how does the structure of the cell membrane determine the route taken by each vitamin?
Vitamin C is water soluable so the only way it can be transported is by faciliated difficusion using a channel protein. Channel proteins allow polar, watersoluable substances and ions to pass across the cell membrane using faciliated diffusion. Vitamin D is lipid soluble therefore it can pass through using simple diffusion because the phospholipid bilayer lets it pass through down its concentration gradient.
Are amino acids a derivative of cholesterol?
No. Cholesterol is a lipid and is a precursor to vitamin D and steroid hormones.
Which lipid is used as the basis of vitamin D and sex hormones and bile?
Cholesterol is the lipid used as the precursor for vitamin D synthesis, sex hormones like testosterone and estrogen, and bile acids. It plays a crucial role in the production of these important molecules in the body.
Fats are a type of?
Lipid
