Questions and Answers

Match the lipid component with its role in the cell membrane:

Phospholipids = Make up the basic structure of the cell membrane Fatty acids = Not a component of the cell membrane Waxes = Not a component of the cell membrane Steroids = Not a component of the cell membrane

Match the lipid group with its classification:

Saturated, Monounsaturated and Polyunsaturated = Groups lipids are grouped into Triglyceride = Not a classification of lipids Monosaccharides, disaccharides or polysaccharides = Not a classification of lipids Monounsaturated, Polyunsaturated = Not a classification of lipids

Match the fatty acid type with its description:

Monounsaturated fatty acids = Molecules contain a double bond between two carbon atoms Saturated fatty acids = Fatty acids with hydrogen atoms artificially added to the double bond Cis Polyunsaturated fatty acids = The structure is slightly bent Trans Polyunsaturated fatty acids = Not bent structure
