IF it is of a disaccharide, both being 6 carbon sugars, such as in the case of sucrose (i thinking glucose and mannose? or gluc and fruc?) and their are 12 Carbons, than essentially 12 CO2 molecules, thus D would be the answer.

A. Important Classes of Lipids \n1. Fatty Acids - Long Chain Aliphatic Carboxylic Acids. \n2. Triacylglycerols - Esters of Fatty Acids with glycerol. \n3. Glycerolphospholipids - Esters of glycerol with fatty acids and phosphate derivatives. \n4. Waxes - Esters of a fatty acid with a long chain alcohol. \n5. Sphingolipids - Esters of Fatty Acids with Sphingosine \n6. Steroids - Polycyclic aliphatics. \n7. Prostaglandins and Leukotrienes - oxidized derivatives of C-20 fatty acids

Flax seed and flaxseed oil has the most concentrated source of the omega-3 alpha-linolenic acid.  Omega-3 fatty acids are classed as essential fatty acids.  These fatty acids can decrease risk of arrhythmias, which can lead to sudden cardiac death; decrease triglyceride levels; decrease growth rate of atherosclerotic plaque; and slightly lower blood pressure. \n\nUse it for the health of your heart!

Fats are also called triacylglycerols or lipids;\n\nthe structure is the result of an esterification reaction between one molecule of glycerol ( a tri-hydroxy alcohol ) and three molecules of fatty acid ( long-chain carboxylic acids ):\n\n R-OH + R-COOH --->  R-C(=O)OR + H20\n\nglycerol is H2C(OH)CH(OH)CH2OH;  the fatty acids are typically stearic ( C18H36O2 ) or oleic ( C18H34O2 ) acids.\n\nThe bonds holding the fatty acids to the glycerol part are called ester bonds (-C(=O)-O-C-)

Ascorbyl palmitate is a synthetic ester comprised of the 16-carbon chain saturated fatty acid palmitic acid and L-ascorbic acid. The ester linkage is at the 6 carbon of ascorbic acid. It is used as an antioxidant in foods, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, and is also used as a preservative for the natural oils, oleates, fragrances, colors, vitamins and other edible oils and waxes which are used in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and foods.

triglycerides are a way the human body stores FAT molecules\n\nGlycerol (a triple alcohol molecule) is esterified with a free-fatty-acid molecule (usually long chain fats)\n\nLDL and HDL are references to Low and High densitiy Lipoproteins which is a way these triglycerides are stored in the body.\n\nsee the wiki pages

Fatty acids are synthesized from acetyl CoA molecules in the body when there is an excess of energy.  Acetyl CoA  has two carbons in it, so when only acetyl CoA is used, you'll get an even number.  The body *can* synthesize odd numbered fatty acid chains, but it's complicated.\n\nHere's a link that explains fully the process:\n\nhttp://www.rpi.edu/dept/bcbp/molbiochem/MBWeb/mb2/part1/fasynthesis.htm\n\nHope it's not confusing.

Depends on the type of organism.  In the absence of O2, each molecule of glucose makes 2 ATPs.  With oxygen, its around 30 per molecule of glucose.  I have no idea what the fatty acid is for, although it may be possible that the 18C acid can be broken down into 3 more molecules of glucose

Saturated fat is fat that consists of triglycerides containing only saturated fatty acids. Saturated fatty acids have no double bonds between the carbon atoms of the fatty acid chain (hence, they are fully saturated with hydrogen atoms).\n\nAn unsaturated fat is a fat or fatty acid in which there is one or more double bond in the fatty acid chain. Fat molecules are monounsaturated if it contains one double bond, and polyunsaturated if it contains more than one double bond. Double bonds, which are sometimes referred to as unsaturated bonds, may be cis or trans.

Are there specific nutrients for lowering triglycerides?\nMany of the nutrients for lowering cholesterol naturally will help with triglyceride levels as well.\n\nAccording to a publication by P.K. Reissell's group at Harvard in 1966, it was clearly established that Omega 3 fatty acids and Vitamin C, combined with a low carbohydrate diet, can dramatically reduce your triglyceride levels. Omega 3 fatty acids can help with cholesterol as well.

It has to do with the nomenclature of fatty acids.  Omega 3 fatty acids are unsaturated acids with the first double bond being located at the third carbon from the end, the double bond being between the third and fourth from the end.

Yes it is.  A fatty acid is considered to be a carboxylic acid (organic acid).  Carboxylic acids contain carbon and oxygen.  Since organic chemistry is simply the discipline about the chemistry of carbon and hydrogen, then the fatty acid is organic.

Stearic acid, also called octadecanoic acid, is one of the useful types of saturated fatty acids that comes from many animal and vegetable fats and oils. It is a waxy solid, and its chemical formula is CH3(CH2)16COOH. Its name comes from the Greek word, stear, which means tallow. Its IUPAC name is octadecanoic acid.\n\nStearic acid is prepared by treating animal fat with water at a high pressure and temperature. It can also be obtained from the hydrogenation of vegetable oils. Common stearic acid is actually a mix of stearic acid and palmitic acid, although purified stearic acid is available separately.\n\nStearic acid is useful as an ingredient in making candles, soaps, plastics, oil pastel, cosmetics and for softening rubber.\n\nReduction of stearic acid yields stearyl alcohol.
