- What is the biochemical function category for each of the following types of lipids? a. triacylglycerols b. bile acids c. cholesterol d. steroid hormonesarrow_forwardWhat are the products of the complete hydrolysis of a triacylglycerol?arrow_forwardBile is manufactured in the: a. duodenum. b. liver. c. gall bladder. d. pancreas.arrow_forward
- List, by name, the four general stages of the process by which biochemical energy is obtained from food.arrow_forwardWhat are the general names for the products obtained when a triacylglycerol molecule participates in an acidic-hydrolysis reaction in which a. three molecules of water participate b. two molecules of water participate c. one molecule of water participatesarrow_forwardIndicate whether each of the following aspects of triacylglycerol digestion is associated with the (1) mouth, (2) stomach, (3) small intestine, (4) intestinal cells, or (5) bloodstream a. Chylomicrons are formed. b. Pancreatic lipases are active. c. Stored bile is released. d. Lipoprotein lipases are active.arrow_forward
- What is the name of the enzyme that converts glycerol to glycerol-3-phosphate?arrow_forwardThe organelle that is considered to be the energy producing factory of the cell is called the: mitochondria nucleus endoplasmic reticulum O lysosomesarrow_forwardWhich statements describe electron transport chain events? Two electrons pass between cytochromes through a series of redox reactions. Citrate metabolism results in the formation of one FADH2 and three NADH. NADH releases two hydrogen ions and donates two electrons to coenzyme Q. ATP synthase uses the energy from the redox reactions to generate ATP.arrow_forward
