What else can I help you with?
Does glycerol have an amino group?
No. An amino group contains one nitrogen atom bonded to two hydrogen atoms, and are found in amino acids. Glycerol is a molecule that when bonded to three fatty acids, forms a triglyceride molecule.
Are amino acids attached to a glycerol backbone?
A 3 carbon chain .
Does glycerol have a carboxyl functional group?
No, glycerol does not have a carboxyl functional group. It has three hydroxyl groups (-OH) which are responsible for its properties as a polyol.
What type or types functional groups do you see in a glycerol molecule?
3 hydroxyl groups, glycerol is trihydroxypropane, or technically, propane-1,2,3-triol.
What type of organic compound always includes a carboxyl group and an amino group?
An amino acid always has an amino group and a carboxyl group. The amine group of one amino acid is capable of forming a peptide bond with the carboxyl group of another amino acid.
Do fatty acids and glycerol both contain an amino group?
No - neither of them do.
What functional group found in amino acids is absent from monosaccharides polysaccharides fatty acids and glycerol?
The amino group (-NH2) found in amino acids is absent in monosaccharides, polysaccharides, fatty acids, and glycerol. The absence of this group is attributed to the structural differences and functions of these biomolecules.
Does glycerol have an amino group?
No. An amino group contains one nitrogen atom bonded to two hydrogen atoms, and are found in amino acids. Glycerol is a molecule that when bonded to three fatty acids, forms a triglyceride molecule.
Do glycerol and fatty acids have an amino group?
no amino acid is not a fatty acid this is because of the following reasons 1- due to the difference of functional group i.e Amino acid has two functional groups one is amino group (-NH2) and other is carboxylic group (-COOH) while in fatty acid (-RCOOH) only carboxylic group are present. 2-Amino acid is the sub-unit of protein while Fatty acid is the sub-unit of lipids(FATS).
What is the metabolic function of protein?
amino acid and glycerol
Are amino acid and glycerol small molecule?
yes
Are amino acids attached to a glycerol backbone?
A 3 carbon chain .
Do amino acids amino have an amino group?
No,fatty acids don't have an amino group
Does glycerol have a carboxyl functional group?
No, glycerol does not have a carboxyl functional group. It has three hydroxyl groups (-OH) which are responsible for its properties as a polyol.
True or False A peptide bond joins the amino group of one amino acid to the amino group of another amino acid?
False. A peptide bond joins the carboxyl group of one amino acid to the amino group of another amino acid.
What type or types functional groups do you see in a glycerol molecule?
3 hydroxyl groups, glycerol is trihydroxypropane, or technically, propane-1,2,3-triol.
Is the amino group acidic or basic?
The amino group is basic.
