Question
Chapter 17, Problem 17.18QP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Biological functions of lipids should be listed.
Concept Introduction:
Lipids are diverse in from and are defined by solubility in non-polar solvents and insolubility in water.
Some lipids contain non lipid groups (phosphoryl, amino, sulfate).
They are carried in the body by lipoproteins, subdivided into four main groups based on their chemical structure.
1. Fatty acid, 2. Cholestrol, 3. Triglycerides, 4. Phospholipids.
