1Name the 7 functional groups
Hydroxyl group, Carbonyl group, Carboxyl group, Amino group, Sulfhydryl group, Phosphate group, Methyl group.
2Why are unsaturated fatty acids fluid at room temperature and not as firm as saturated fatty acids?
Unsaturated fatty acid building blocks have bends and kinks that prevent them from being as tightly packed as saturated.
3Describe Glycerol...

4 ring structures
8OH compound points ___ for energy storage. (Alpha glucose)
Down
9What happens when Glycerol and Fatty acids bond together?
An H atom from glycerol and OH atom from fatty acids combine to form water together, ester linkage is formed between the leftover stubs
10What is a Disaccharide?
2 monosaccharides that joined through a glycosidic linkage
11What does the head of a phospholipd consists of?
Phosphate group and will dissolve in water because it is hydrophilic

14Name the 4 Major Macromolecules
Carbohydrates, Lipids, Proteins, Nucleic Acids
15What are does the tail of a Phospholipid consists of?
