The word for large fat molecules is "lipids." Lipids are a diverse group of hydrophobic organic compounds, including fats, oils, waxes, and sterols. They play essential roles in energy storage, cell membrane structure, and signaling within the body.
Fats are large non polar, insoluble molecules composed of elements - Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen
monomer reaction
Lipids are fats, or to be technical, they are non-polar organic molecules. They do form large molecules but they do not polymerize.
Large Food Molecules in The Small Intestine!
Carbon is the element that forms the backbone of large complex molecules such as sugars and fats. Its ability to form four covalent bonds allows it to create diverse structures, including chains and rings, which are essential for the formation of carbohydrates and lipids. These carbon-based molecules are vital for biological functions and energy storage in living organisms.

Fat molecules are made up of glycerol linked to fatty acids.
All ionic molecules and all large fat molecules. What can get in (without help) is water and dissolved gases.
Macromolucules means large molecules (macro-large) consists of :Carbohydrates(suger),lipids(fat),proteins

Fats. Fat molecules are a rich source of energy for the body. The first step in digestion of a fat such as butter is to dissolve it into the watery content of the intestinal cavity. The bile acids produced by the liver act as natural detergents to dissolve fat in water and allow the enzymes to break the large fat molecules into smaller molecules, some of which are fatty acids and cholesterol. The bile acids combine with the fatty acids and cholesterol and help these molecules to move into the cells of the mucosa. In these cells the small molecules are formed back into large molecules, most of which pass into vessels (called lymphatics) near the intestine. These small vessels carry the reformed fat to the veins of the chest, and the blood carries the fat to storage depots in different parts of the body.

They are called macromolecules, from the Greek word meaning "large" or "great".
No, unsaturated fat is not a polymer. It is a type of fat molecule that has double bonds in its carbon chain, making it different from polymers, which are large molecules made up of repeating units called monomers.
Fat molecules
''gros'' means ''big, large, or fat''
a fat is a large lipid made from 2 kinds of smaller molecules: glycerol and fatty acids
