Question

name: dennis andrews date: 01/23/25 lipids 1. it is not capable of storing as much glycogen compared to lipids. 2. equal sharing of electrons between two or more different atoms. 3. transports triglycerides and cholesterol in the blood between all the tissues of the body. 4. stores energy in the form of lipids and insulates the body. 5. composed of four rings of carbon. 6. made up of a phosphate group and two fatty - acid tails. 7. lowers the amount of sugar in your blood. 8. hydrogen molecules are forced into a normally unsaturated fat molecule. 9. stores fat and is the main constituent of body fat in humans and some animals. 10. major groups: fats, triglycerides, phospholipids, steroids a. energy storage b. adipose tissue c. body insulin d. lipids e. steroids f. hydrogenated fat g. lipoprotein h. triglycerides i. non - polar j. phospholipid

Explanation:

1. Lipids store more energy than glycogen, so this is related to energy - storage properties of lipids (A).
2. Equal sharing of electrons is characteristic of non - polar bonds, and lipids are non - polar (I).
3. Lipoproteins transport triglycerides and cholesterol in the blood (G).
4. Adipose tissue stores energy as lipids and insulates the body (B).
5. Steroids are composed of four rings of carbon (E).
6. Phospholipids are made up of a phosphate group and two fatty acid tails (J).
7. Insulin lowers the amount of sugar in the blood (C).
8. Hydrogenated fat is formed when hydrogen molecules are forced into an unsaturated fat molecule (F).
9. Triglycerides store fat and are a main constituent of body fat (H).
10. The major groups of lipids include fats, triglycerides, phospholipids, steroids (D).

Answer:

1. A. Energy Storage
2. I. Non - Polar
3. G. Lipoprotein
4. B. Adipose Tissue
5. E. Steroids
6. J. Phospholipid
7. C. Body Insulin
8. F. Hydrogenated Fat
9. H. Triglycerides
10. D. Lipids
