Fatty Acids

It is part of specialized membrane components consisting of carbohydrates attached to a lipid molecule through a glycosidic bond.

Glycolipids

It is sometimes seen in the membranes of some types of plant cells and even cells of the nervous system

HYDROPHILIC HEAD (PHOSPHATE GROUP) AND HYDROPHOBIC TAIL (FATTY ACID GROUP)

The ________ process is used in the industries to produce fat products. It involves in breaking of double bonds of unsaturated fatty acids with hydrogen and turning them into hydrogenated (saturated) fatty acids.

Hydrogenation

______ is an example of compound lipids

Phospholipid

Act as energy storage molecules

Physical properties

______ is the undesirable state that occurs in oils, fats, and their products. Due to oxidation of unsaturated fatty acids or hydrolysis of fats and oils, it produces an undesirable odor.

Rancidity

It is the process in which hydrolyzing triglycerides with an enzyme called lipase or hydrolysis with an alkaline forms two products.

Saponification

_______contain single bonds in its hydro- carbon chain

Saturated fatty acids

are aromatic compounds common in plants that produce the essential oils lavender, orange, lemon, and pine tree

Terpenes

The _____ lipid has one or more ester groups allocating it to endure hydrolysis in the charisma of an acid, base or enzyme. Includes triacylglycerides, glycerophospholipids, and sphingolipids are some of the most saponifiable lipids. The backbone of the first two is glycerol.

cholesterol

_______ are fatty acid polymers with a long, non-polar hydrocarbon chain and a small polar region containing oxygen.

Lipids

Is a fatty acid ester of different alcohols and carries no other substance. These lipids belong to a heterogeneous class of predominantly nonpolar compounds, mostly insoluble in water, but soluble in nonpolar organic solvents such as chloroform and benzene.

Linoleic acid and alpha-linolenic acid

REFERS TO LIQUID TRIGLYCERIDES FROM PLANT SOURCES. EXAMPLES ARE OLIVE OIL, CORN OIL, SUNFLOWER OIL, AND SOYBEAN OIL.

OIL

______ is an example of a monounsaturated fatty acid.

Oleic acid

ALSO A MAJOR COMPONENT IN THE CELL MEMBRANE.

PHOSPHOLIPIDS

_____are lipids with a phosphate group

PHOSPHOLIPIDS

Act as insulation.

Physical properties

At room temperature, lipids either present liquid condition or non-crystalline solids condition.

Physical properties

Fats and Oils of pure form are colorless, odorless, and tasteless.

Physical properties

Fats consist of high proportions of saturated fatty acids.

Physical properties

Insoluble in water.

Physical properties

Oils consist of high proportions of unsaturated fatty acids.

Physical properties

Soluble in organic solvents

Physical properties

most common common lipids floating in our blood stream and their main role is to help us store energy

TRIGLYCERIDES

Phospholipid is ______, have a polar and non-polar end. This property allows it to transport molecules in the bloodstream.

amphipatic

Main role of ________ is immune response and cell to cell recognition

glycolipids

Saturated fatty acids are _________, which means that the maximum number of hydrogen atoms possible are bonded to each carbon in the molecule.

hydrogen-saturated

The most common polyunsaturated fatty acids are (3)

linoleic acid, linolenic acid, and arachidonic acid.

Organic compounds that contain hydrogen, carbon, and oxygen atoms, which form the framework for the structure and function of living cells. These organic compounds are nonpolar molecules, which are soluble only in nonpolar solvents and insoluble in water. Examples of lipids include fats, oils, waxes, certain vitamins (such as A, D, E and K), hormones and most of the cell membrane that is not made up of protein.
