LIPIDS LIPIDS ARE A GROUP OF COMPOUNDS THAT INCLUDE; FATS, OILS, LECITHIN, AND CHOLESTEROL. THREE CATEGORIES: TRIGLYCERIDES: PHOSPHOLIPIDS STEROLS.
Lipids and Membranes. All cell membranes share a characteristic trilaminar appearance. Two electron-dense layers separated by a less dense central region.
Lipids Hydrophobic vs. hydrophilic –For something to be soluble in water (and therefore hydrophilic) it must have a charge –Triglycerides don’t have any.
