How are phospholipids similar to lipids such as triglycerides? ... Phospholipids aredifferent from triglycerides in that the fatty acids are attached to a phosphate group that makes the molecule have a polar head and a nonpolar tail. Triglycerides are three fatty acids attached to a glycerol molecule.
