lipids are a concentrated source of energy & provide fuel for aerobic respiration
phospholipids for the structural framework of cellular membranes
stored lipids provide insulation
increased body fat levels in winter reduce heat losses to the environment
hydrophilic dissolve in water
hydrophobic doesn't mix with water
saturated fatty acids are solids at room temperature e.g. butter
unsaturated fatty acids are oils & tend to be liquid at room temperature
saturated fatty acids contain maximum amount of hydrogen atoms
unsaturated fatty acids contain some atoms that are double bonded & not fully saturated with hydrogen
neutral fats
make up fats & oils found in plants & animals
waxes
similar structure to fats & oils
formed with a complex alcohol instead of glycerol
