These are molecules obtained from living cells that are insoluble in water, but soluble in nonpolar substances
Lipids
A long chain carboxylic aced; those in animal fats and vegetable oils often have 12 -22 carbon atoms
Fatty acids
Waxes are simple__________
Esters
What type of configuration is around the bond of a Natural unsaturated fatty acids?
CIS configuration
Explain the bonds of a polyunsaturated fatty acid.
more than on double bond

What are the functions of lipids in the body?
Cell membrane
storage of energy
Hormones & vitamins
Movement of substances across a cell membrane using energy
active transport
Movement of a substance across a cell membrane without the use of energy, from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration
Passive Transport
Passive transport by the random diffusion through the cell.
Simple Diffusion
Passive transport across a cell membrane with the assistance of a protein that changes shape.
Facilitated Diffusion
Give some examples of Simple diffusion
Lipid soluble and small hydrophilic molecules

hydrophobic through the bilayer
Hydrophilic through protein pores
Give an example of facilitated diffusion
Glucose

down a concentration gradient, but much faster than simple diffusion
Explain Active transport
energy from ATP is use to change the shape of an integral protein (Na/K) pump.
What is the (Na/K pump)
simultaneously bringing two K+ ions into the cell and moving 3 Na+ ions out of the cell
name this
Prostaglandin

can lower blood pressure,influence platetlet aggregation during blood clotting,and responsible for pain in swelling
Name this
Leukotriene

triggers asthmatic response, severe allergic rxns and inflammation
A mixture of triacyglycerols that is solid because it contains a high proportion of SATURATED FATTY ACIDS
Fats
A mixture of triacylgyceros that is liquid because it contians a high proportion of UNSATURATED FATTY ACIDS
Oils
A mixture of of esters of LONG CHAINS CARBOXYLIC ACIIDS W/ LONG CHAIN ALCOHOLS
Waxes
A lipid that has an ester link between PHOSPHORIC ACID & AN ALCOHOL
Phospholipids
A lipid derived from the AMINO ALCOHOL SPINGOSINE
Shingolipids
A lipid with a FATTY ACID bonded to the 2nd C-NH2 and a SUGAR bonded to the 1st C-NH2 group of sphingosine
Glycolipids
What are the Nonsaponifiable lipids
Steroids
Eicosanoids
Saturated fatty acids have what types of bonds?
single bonds (no double bonds)
What is base hydrolysis of fat called
saponification
What does soaponification produce from fats
salts and long chain Fatty Acids
Proteins extended completely through the membrane
Integral Proteins
Proteins adhere temporarily to the membrane and to one face of bilayer
Peripheral Proteins
Where are the hydrophobic groups located in the structures of cell membranes?
Inside the cell
Where are the hydrophilic groups are on the outside because of it contact w/aqueous fluids?
Outside of the cell
Made of phosphobilayer studded w/proteins
Plasma membrane
