A

Triglycerides

30
Q

2 FAs, glycerol and phosphate derivative

A

Phospholoipids (cell membranes)

31
Q

used to make cell membranes, bile salts, and steroid hormones

A

cholesterol (sterol group)

32
Q

Precursor molecules to cholesterol

A

MASH (Mevalonate, Acetyl CoA, Squalene, and HMG CoA)

33
Q

Which is omega-3, Linoleic or Linolenic?

A

linolenic
(linoleic is omega-6)
linoleic has fewer letters and less to offer than omega-3 FA linolenic which has more letters)
