Summary Introduction
To review:
The relation between fats and lipids.
Introduction:
Lipids are the type of molecules that differ greatly in chemical structures. They are insoluble in water or polar solutions and hydrophobic in nature, but they are soluble in non-polar solvents such as benzene, ether, and other related compounds.

Your first task though is to convince yourself that is true. The best way to do that is to start close to home. Find something in your house that is a product obtained directly from an invertebrate or only due to an invertebrate’s actions. Describe the product, its function and utility, as well as any human manufactured alternatives. Be sure to highlight the advantages of obtaining this directly from nature. Keep in mind, a product can be something you use, wear, eat, or enjoy for its visual appeal.arrow_forward
