•
List the elements (as identified in the periodic table) that are
found in all lipids.
•
Write the word “Fats”

Under this heading hand draw a molecular picture of a fat molecule (p.
47). Label the Glycerol and the 3 Fatty
Acid Tails. Under your drawing write the
function of fat molecules.
–
Hand draw a saturated fatty acid tail.
Under the saturated fatty acid tail draw (or print) in color a picture
of a food item that contains saturated fats.
–
Hand draw an unsaturated fatty acid tail.
Under the unsaturated fatty acid tail draw (or print) in color a picture
of a food item that contains unsaturated fats.
•

Under your Phospholipids heading, hand draw a picture of a phospholipid
(p. 204). Label the phosphate head and
the fatty acid tails. Under your drawing
write the function of phospholipids in your body.
•
Write the word “Sterols”
