Starch-amylose-unbranched,tight spirals, v.compact,a-glucose 1-4 glycosidic bonds,amylopectin-branched, 1-6 glycosidic bonds, many terminal ends to be hydrolysed
Glycogen-similar to amylopectin
1 of 2
Triglycerides and cholesterol
E store-plants+animals
insoluble-no osmotic effect
protects organs, insulation, buoyancy
Saturated-tesselated, solid, LDL, single CB,animals+fish
Unsaturated-liquid,2 CB alter angle of chain, reduce IMF strength, Kinks chain, prevents tesselation, HDL, plants+fish
esterfication-with water
condensation reaction
Cholesterol needs to be attached to protein to move around body-lipoportein
LDL-mainly lipid, transport cholesterol from liver to blood, increases total blood cholesterol (low)
HDL-mainly protein,transport cholesterol from tissues to liver to be recycled, reduced tbc (high)
