Types of Lipids
Functions of Lipids
Lipid Digestion
Lipoproteins
100
These types of lipids are liquid at room temperature.
What are oils
100
This is a single fatty acid attached to a glycerol backbone
What is a monoglyceride
100
Lipids provide energy to cells at a rate of this many calories per gram.
What is 9
100
This is the first site of lipid digestion
What is the mouth
100
These are the small proteins embedded in the hard shell of the lipoprotein
What are apoproteins
200
These fatty acids have more than one double bond in the carbon chain
What is PUFA
200
This type of lipid has three fatty acids attached to a glycerol backbone.
What is a triglyceride
200
In addition to providing energy and storing excess energy, lipids also serve this third function.
What is insulation and protection
200
This enzyme is released from salivary glands and accompanies the bolus through swallowing
What is lingual lipase
200
lipoproteins are primarily made by this organ
What is the liver
300
These fatty acids have the hydrogens on opposite sides of the double bond
What are trans fatty acids
300
These are the two types of essential fatty acids
What are linoleic and linolenic
300
Excess energy from lipids is primary stored in this type of tissue.
What is adipose
300
This hormone triggers the release of gastric lipase in the stomach
What is gastrin
300
This is the largest and least dense type of lipoprotein
What are chylomicrons
400
These two characteristics of lipids are affected by the chain length of the fatty acid.
What is melting point and solubility
400
This type of bond connects fatty acids to a glycerol backbone
What is ester linkage
400
This type of adipose tissue is found around vital organs.
What is visceral adipose tissue
400
CCK stimulate the gallbladder to release this solution into the small intestine
What is bile
400
These are the "bad cholesterol"
What is LDL
500
This commercial process converts double bonds to single bonds by inserting hydrogen atoms.
What is partial hydrogenation
500
This eicosanoid controls the dilation and constriction of blood vessels in order to regulate blood pressure
What is prostaglandin
500
This is the body hair that forms when severely underweight people do not have enough fat insulation.
What is lanugo
500
This is the final enzyme that acts in the small intestine to complete the removal of fatty acids from their glycerol backbones
What is pancreatic lipase
500
HDLs round up excess cholesterol and return it to the liver. This process is called
What is reverse cholesterol transport
