The glycerol contains alcohol as functional group.
Explanation - The beta oxidation of fatty acids cause the breakdown of lipids and leads to release of fatty acids as well as glycerol. The glycerol is a polyhydroxy alcohol. It means that it has more than one -OH (hydroxy) groups.
The figure attached below shows the breakdown of triglyceride into fatty acids and glycerol.
During lipolysis triglycerides are broken down and fatty acids and glycerol are released. Which of the...
Triglycerides can be broken down by hydrolysis reactions to glycerol and fatty acid chains in the digestive tract. Glycerol is easily converted to 1 phosphoglyceraldehyde also known as PGAL. Using your knowledge about how aerobic cellular respiration functions, explain how from this original glycerol molecule how many ATP’s are formed in this process. Make sure you include explanations where each ATP is made.

2. Arshamia ovidbarbidae uses triglycerides as a major source of energy. During catabolism of triglycerides, this species uses a triglycerides lipase to hydrolyse glycerol from the molecule, releasing the three constituent fatty acids. The R1 and R2 fatty acids (I.e. including the COO terminus) are Lauric acids while R3 is Stearic acids. Assuming that this species has all the necessary capabilities to run Embden-Meyerhoff glycolysis, Krebs TCA, and anerobic electron transport and oxidative phosphorylation, determine the theoretical maximum ATP production...
Part A: In glycerophospholipids, 2 fatty acids are added onto glycerol in via ester linkages. Also attached is a phosphate group and an alcohol. Using serine as the alcohol and any 2 fatty acid molecules, draw the structure of a glycerophospholipid. Part B: In sphingophospholipids, 1 fatty acid is added onto glycerol in via an amide linkage. Also attached is a phosphate group and the alcohol choline. Using any 1 fatty acid, phosphate and choline, draw the structure of a...

Which of the statements are true? Fats that contain more unsaturated fatty acid residues than saturated fatty acid residues are more likely to be liquid at room temperature. Tracleucerols (triglycerides) always contain three identical fatty acids. Unsaturated fats have higher melting points than saturated fats. Triacylglycerols (triglycerides) are composed of fatty acid residues and glycerol. Unsaturated fats are more likely than saturated fats to be liquid at room temperature.
