Lipoproteins are relatively large, spherical clumps of protein and lipid molecules that circulate in the blood of mammals. They are like suitcases that move cholesterol, fatty acid remnants, triglycerides, and phospholipids from one place to another in the body. Given what you know about the insolubility of lipids in water, which of the four kinds of lipids would you predict to be on the outside of a lipoprotein clump, bathed in the fluid portion of blood?

During hydrogenation, cis double bonds are converted to trans double bonds.  In the lab, we compare three fats, each of which has fatty acid chains that are exactly the same length (number of carbons) and observe the following: Fat 1 contains only saturated fatty acids 16 carbons long, and has a melting point of 65 degrees C. Fat 2 contains only cis unsaturated fatty acids 16 carbons long, and has a melting point of 35 degrees C. Fat 3 contains only trans fatty acids 16 carbons long, and has a melting point of 65 degrees C. Both Fat 2 and Fat 3 contain fatty acids with a single double bond; fat 1 has no double bonds.  Why do Fat 3 and Fat 1 have more similar melting points than Fat 3 and Fat 2? Group of answer choices The number of hydrogen atoms in the fatty acids of fats 1 & 3 is higher, and having more hydrogen atoms raises the melting point of the fat. The fatty acids in fats 1 & 3 have a linear shape, so they pack tightly together and have lots of hydrophobic…
