- The melting points of a series of 18-carbon fatty acids are: stearic acid, 69.6 °C; oleic acid, 13.4 °C; linoleic acid, −5 °C; and linolenic acid, −11 °C.(a) What structural aspect of these 18-carbon fatty acids can be correlated with the melting point?(b) Draw all the possible triacylglycerols that can be constructed from glycerol, palmitic acid, and oleic acid. Rank them in order of increasing melting point.(c) Branched-chain fatty acids are found in some bacterial membrane lipids. Would their presence increase or decrease the fluidity of the membrane (that is, give the lipids a lower or higher melting point)? Why?arrow_forwardDraw the structure of a triacylglycerol containing stearic acid, palmitic acid, and oleic acid.arrow_forwardDefine the following terms: a. reducing sugar b. alditol c. enediol d. acetal e. ketalarrow_forward
