- three reaction condensation
- monoacylglycerol
- diacylglycerol-
is an important molecule for sending signals within the cell
- triacylglycerol
in digestion it gets hydrolyze to produce 3 fatty acids and one glycerol
the bond is an ester bond
glycerol-OH
fatty acids-c
Saturated fat one bond of hydrogen:. palmitic-solid
unSaturated-liquid
mono:one double bond of carbon
polo:more than one double bond
Omega-6 and omega-3 as omega 3 `are in fish and omega 6 are in eggs as well as arachidonic is found in meat ,eggs and fish
hydrophobic
hydrophilic-yhr glycerol and the phosphate group
In plants and animals as its used also for protection and waterproofing that contains fatty acid chains bonded with long alcohol and it's solid in room temprature
animals V a
Essential for growth development immunity
Converted to retinal and used by mollusks, insects and vertebrates in the process of light reception
In human important for vision to protect from night blindness
5 hydrogen bond named as isoprene and they are a mixture of double and singel
these are pigments because they can tend light in a wavelengths and reflect it
Bile salts
Cholesterol
Reproductive hormones
Adrenal hormones (e.g. cortisol)
Steroid hormones (e.g. testosterone) enter the cell and form hormone receptor complexes in the cytosol or nucleus.
They help control metabolism, inflammation, immune systems, sat and water balance, development of sexual characteristic and the ability to withstand illness and injury
