Catalytic hydrogenation of an alkene produces an ________.

Fully hydrogenated fat does not have a good consistency for cooking.

Answer 9

Alkane

Fully hydrogenated fat does not have a good consistency for cooking.

Question 10

Partial Hydrogenation leaves ____ double bonds, whereas full hydrogenation removes all double bonds.

Answer 10

two

Question 11

Partial hydrogenation converts a ______ into a _______ product which has a good consistency for cooking but does not contain cholesterol found in animal fats.

Answer 11

Vegetable oil

Semisolid

Question 12

Trans fats have been linked to ______ ___ levels, an increased risk of heart disease.

Answer 12

Lowered HDL

_{<em><strong>High HDL = good </strong></em>}

Question 13

Trans Fat:

Partially hydrogenation of unsaturated vegetable oil converts some of the carbon-carbon double bonds from ____(natural form) into _____ isomers.

Answer 13

Cis

Trans

Question 14

Saponification converts _________ into ________ salts and glycerol.

Answer 14

Triglycerides

Fatty acids

Question 15

Amphipathic

Answer 15

hydrophilic & hydrophobic

Question 16

Are Waxes, Fatty Acids, and Triglycerides

Hydrophobic or hydrophilic?

Answer 16

Hydrophobic

Question 17

______ double layers of amphipathic lipids.

Answer 17

Membranes

Question 18

Phospholipids and Glycolipids are commonly found in ________.

Answer 18

Membranes

Question 19

Phospholipids get their name from the fact that?

Answer 19

Phosphate ion is one of the components used in their formation.

Question 20

_______ are lipids that contain a sugar residue.

Answer 20

Glycolipids

Question 21

Phospholipids are effective as ___________. Why?

Answer 21

Emulsifying agents

Because they are amphipathic

Question 22

An ______ is a colloid formed by combining two liquids.

_{(i.e. keeps oil-water from separating when making mayo.)}

Answer 22

Emulsion

Question 23

______ is a fat substitute.

It’s formed when sucrose forms ester bonds between six and 8 fatty acids.

Answer 23

Olestra

Question 24

How is cholesterol used by the human body?

Answer 24

Cholesterol is incorporated into the membranes. This gives flexible membranes extra rigidity.

It forms starting material for the synthesis of other steroids such as the sex hormones, bile salts and cortisone hormones.

Question 25

Bile salts aid in digestion of triglycerides by acting as emulsifiers. Explain.

Answer 25

Bile acids are amphipathic lipids and aid in digestion by forming emulsions with dietary lipids. The digestive fluid is mostly an aqueous solution which is not soluble with lipids in our diet such as triglycerides.

Question 26

What are the biological functions of HDL and LDL?

Answer 26

• *HDL** transport cholesterol and phospholipids from the cells to the liver.
• *LDL** transport cholesterol and phospholipids from the liver to the cells.

Question 27

Compare and contrast facilitated diffusion and diffusion and active transport?

Answer 27

Both diffusion and facilitated diffusion requires movement of solutes and small particles from a region of high concentration of solute to a region of lower concentration, however, facilitated diffusion requires protein channels.

Facilitates diffusion: release Energy

Active transport moves solute particles from a region of low concentration of solute to a region of high concentration and requires an input of energy.

Question 28

_________ have a wide range of biological effect.

• causing pain
• causing inflammation
• causing fever
• affecting blood pressure
• inducing labor

Answer 28

Prostaglandins

Question 29

__________ are involved in blood clotting

Answer 29

thromboxanes

Question 30

_________ induce muscle contractions in the lungs and are linked to asthma attacks.

• some anti-asthma drugs block the production of this.

Answer 30

Leukotrienes

Question 31

Hormones that are derived from arachidonic acid and other essential 2-carbon fatty acids.

Answer 31

eicosanoids

Question 32

What happens when arachidonic is hydrolyzed?

Answer 32

forms 3 eicosanoids

Prostoglands

Thromboxanes

Leukotriens

Question 33

________ aides in the following:

• syntheizes sex hormones, cortizone, & bile salts.
• Adds rigidity to membranes
• aides in digestion

Answer 33

Cholesterol
