In a molecule of glycocholic acid, the number of attachments to the steroid nucleus has to be predicted. Concept introduction: There are two types of bile acids: simple and complexed. When a small amino group is attached to the carboxyl group of side chain present at carbon 17 through an amide linkage, then the free bile acids get converted into more complex bile acid.

Solution Summary: The author explains that a molecule of glycocholic acid has 6 attachments to the steroid nucleus.
Definition Definition Group of atoms that shape the chemical characteristics of a molecule. The behavior of a functional group is uniform in undergoing comparable chemical reactions, regardless of the other constituents of the molecule. Functional groups aid in the classification and anticipation of reactivity of organic molecules.
