Yes, triglycerides are macromolecules.
Glycogen (made up the macromolecule carbohydrates)
Fats are made up of molecules called lipids, which include triglycerides and cholesterol. Lipids are a type of macromolecule that are insoluble in water and serve as a major source of energy storage in the body.
Macromolecule digestion typically begins in the mouth with the breakdown of carbohydrates by amylase. Further digestion of macromolecules like proteins and lipids occurs in the stomach and small intestine with the help of various enzymes such as pepsin and pancreatic lipase.
Large polymers are often called macromolecules.
When one glycerol molecule covalently binds via dehydration synthesis with three fatty acid molecules, the resulting macromolecule is called a triglyceride. This molecule serves as a type of fat storage in organisms and can be broken down for energy when needed.
A lipid
neither. But it IS a macromolecule
Lipid, a macromolecule and an organic compound.

A block macromolecule is a macromolecule composed of a linear sequence of blocks.
The prefix for macromolecule is "macro-".
Unsweetened cocoa powder contains a significant amount of carbohydrates, protein, and fiber, so it would be placed in the category of macromolecules known as carbohydrates and proteins on a macromolecule chart. It doesn't contain fat or cholesterol.
Large polymers are often called macromolecules.
A macromolecule is just a molecule with a large number of atoms. A protein is an example of a macromolecule.
Yes, animal fat would be classified as a chemical compound. A compound is a combination of 2 or more elements. Fat is a macromolecule containing many different elements. Triglycerides, for example, have a glycerol "head" molecule attached to 3 hydrocarbon "tail" chains.
