Enzymes called lipases hydrolyze triacylglycerols to yield fatty acids and glycerol. What molecule is glycerol converted into so that it can enter glucose metabolism?
Glycerol is converted to Dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) which can enter gluconeogenesis (or chose metabolism).

Question 1 (1 point) In this lab you will attempt to hydrolyze the triacylglycerols ("fat") found in milk. What are the expected products for this hydrolysis? triacylglcerol and fatty acids fatty acids and glycerol glycerol and water water and triglycerides Question 2 (1 point) In this lab you will attempt to hydrolyze the triacylglycerols ("fat") found in milk. If hydrolysis is successful, what will happen to the pH of the milk solution? pH will increase pH will decrease OpH will...

15. The process by which double-bonds in unsaturated fatty acids are converted to single bonds is termed . The 16. Fatty acids are linked to glycerol by a reaction known as opposite chemical process is termed 17. True / False Micelles are lipid bilayers and differ from the phospholipid bilayer of cell membranes only in scale. 18. Triglycerides and even more so phospholipids contain a polar head and a nonpolar tail that results in dual polar-nonpolar nature. These compounds are...
