what are lipids? and what are sources of lipids?
Answers
The three main types of lipids are triacylglycerols (also called triglycerides), phospholipids, and sterols. Triacylglycerols (also known as triglycerides) make up more than 95 percent of lipids in the diet and are commonly found in fried foods, vegetable oil, butter, whole milk, cheese, cream cheese, and some meats

Answer:
Lipids are all made of carbon, hydrogen
and little oxygen and are water insoluble
but get dissolved in organic solvents like
ether, benzene, acetone etc. The lipids are
not polymers but they are assembled
from smaller molecules by dehydration.
Lipids could be simple fatty acids or
glycerol (which is trihydroxy propane).
Many lipids have both glycerol and fatty
acids. Some lipids have phosphorus and a
phosphorylated organic compound in
them. Some lipids have more complex
structures.
