This is the more common name for Amylose, which is broken down by humans for energy.
What is Starch?
200
When a fatty acid contains a Carbon-Carbon double bond, it is called this, which means it is usually in liquid form.
What is unsaturated?

Dehydration synthesis is the general term for the reaction that binds together two of these.
What are monomers?
400
This is the name for the bond holding two monosaccharides together, consisting of one oxygen.
What is a Glycosidic bond?
400
The head of a phospholipid includes this group, which makes it polar.
What is a Phosphate Group?

This suffix, common in sugars, translates roughly from Latin into "Full of"
What is -OSE? (glucOSE, sucrOSE)
500
Lipids have many more of these high-energy bonds between these two elements than sugars, making them ideal for energy storage.
