Chapter 15, Problem 15.31UKC

(A)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Among phospholipids, triacylglycerol, hydrolyzable lipid and phosphoacylglycerol that represents the block diagram A has to be identified.

Concept Introduction:

Lipids that contain an ester group that reacts with water are termed has hydrolyzable lipids. For example, triacylglycerols, phospholipids, and waxes.

Hydrolyzable lipids that contain phosphorus atoms are called phospholipids. They consist of hydrophilic or polar head and a hydrophobic or nonpolar head and has glycerol, phosphate group and two fatty acids that make the structure rigid than triacylglycerols.

The common type of phospholipid is phosphoacylglycerol that consists of two fatty acids esterified with two OH groups of glycerol and phosphoric acid is esterified to one OH group of alcohol and one OH group of glycerol. Its structure consists of one head and two tails.

Triacylglycerols are lipids that are formed by two or more similar or different fatty acids. They are also called triglycerides and are hydrophobic and nonpolar in nature.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Among phospholipids, triacylglycerol, hydrolyzable lipid and phosphoacylglycerol that represents the block diagram B has to be identified.
