Curve: max grade for a (93) - never raises curve. Types of lipids: fatty acids / triglycerides. C. 1. c) builds up in arteries & causes heart attacks only in animals synthesis: (c. 1. c. 1) only make what need (c. 1. c. 2) (c. 1. c. 3) if don"t eat any, body synthesizes all it needs if eat lots, body makes less. 9 kcal/gram energy dense: storage form of energy (because fat/lipids are so energy dense) B. 4. b) estrogen in fat if don"t have enough estrogen, bone less: structure of cell membranes. C. 3. b) inflammation (c. 3. b. 1) w-6 would increase inflammation (c. 3. b. 2) w-3 would decrease inflammation. C. 3. e) vascular dilation immune response blood pressure: essential fatty acids. D. 1. only 2 because can"t synthesize w-3 or w-6, but can elongate them. D. 3. alpha linolenic acid (w-3) linoleic acid (w-6: cholesterol (what"s made from cholesterol . ) E. 3. cell membranes bile - emulsifier (breaks down fat) Transport lipids: lipids: macronutrients that don"t dissolve in water.
