|
9 kilocalories per gram (kcal/g),
|
|
The main pathways of lipid metabolism are
|
lipolysis,
|
|
Lipolysis (fat breakdown)
|
beta-oxidation occurs in the mitochondria.
|
|
Ketosis
|
occurs when the rate of formation of ketones by the liver is greater than the ability of tissues to oxidize them.
|
|
diabetes
|
It occurs during prolonged starvation and when large amounts of fat are eaten in the absence of carbohydrate
|
|
main source of triglycerides is
|
liver
|
|
Cholesterol
|
is either obtained from the diet or synthesized in a variety of tissues, including the liver, adrenal cortex, skin, intestine, testes, and aorta.
|
|
Acetyl Coenzyme A

|
|
lipoprotein
|
know difference between HDL and LDL
|
|
HDL
|
A complex of lipids and proteins in approximately equal amounts that functions as a transporter of cholesterol in the blood.
|
|
HDL
|
A form of cholesterol that circulates in the blood. Commonly called "good" cholesterol.

LDL
|
A form of cholesterol that circulates in the blood.
