5 properties of water
solvent, high heat capacity, ice floats, cohesion, adhesion
phospholipid
two fatty acids and a phosphate
steroids
three 6 membered rings, and one 5 membered
waxes
lipid derivative. have esters and OH. protective coating
carotenoids
fatty acids with double bonds, and hexanes at each end
porphyrins
4 joined pyrrole rings. with metal complex
white fat cells
adipocytes. lots of lipids
brown fat cells
adipocytes. scattered lipids with mitochondria
glycolipids
phospholipids but carbs,
pi bond number and polarity
triple bonds, polar than single bonds

cofactors
nonprotein that assist enzymes
holoenzyme
union of cofactor and enzyme. apoprotein is w/o
albumin and globulin protein
carriers or enzyme
scleroprotein
fibrous structure
mucoprotein
bound to carb protein
secondary protein structure
h bonding only between amino acids
globular protein
water soluble, diverse function, . 3ary structure
fibrous structure protein
insoluble long polymers, add strength. 2nd structure
