generally, smple lipids has alcohol group and fatty acid group. while complex contains ring chained carbons, CHO's, sphingosines ans others. they are may be classified as complex because they hav really complex structures than the simple ones. and they're function is more on cell biochemistry..

Is pizza a lipid carbohydrate or protein?

The answer to that question is that all three of these substances are found in pizza. Lipids are generally found in fatty substances and since pizza contains many of these it is loaded with lipids. Complex carbohydrates are contained in the dough that the crust of the pizza is composed of and simple carbohydrates are in the vegetables.Meat and cheeses will contain proteins and as you load meat onto your pizza you load it with more protein.


What foods last the longest in your digestive system?

Lipids (fats & oils), as they have the most complex structure to break down. Simple sugars are the easiest, followed by complex sugars, then starch, then proteins, then lipids. It can take a few minutes to absorb simple sugars, a couple of hours for starch, 6 hours for proteins and 8 hrs or more for lipids. That's why low fat diets can make people go hungry.

Can simple lipids be hydrolyzed?

Yes, simple lipids can be hydrolyzed. Lipids are broken down into their component molecules through the process of hydrolysis, which involves the addition of water to break the ester bonds in lipids, resulting in the release of fatty acids and glycerol.
