Question

Complete the sentences describing membrane lipids by moving the names of the lipids to the appropriate targets. Some lipids will be used more than once. Some targets require you to place two or three lipids. contain one fatty acid. include two fatty acids joined to glycerol by ester linkages. are made up of a 1,2-diacylglycerol and a polar head group alcohol attached by a phosphodiester bond. are common in plant membranes. contain sulfate. have hydrocarbons linked the glycerol by bonds that are more stable in acidic or high temperature environments. do not contain glycerol. can contain phosphate.

Answer 1

1. Sphingolipids
2. Galactolipids, Sulfolipids, Glycerophospholipids
3. Glycerophospholipids
4. Galactolipids, Sulfolipids
5. Sulfolipids
6. Archeal lipids
7. Sphingolipids
8. Archael lipids, Sphingolipids, Glycerophospholipids

Step-by-step explanation:

Sphingolipids contain one fatty acid.

Galactolipids, Sulfolipids, Glycerophospholipids include two fatty acids joined to glycerol by ester linkages.

Glycerophospholipids are made up of a 1,2-diacylglycerol and a polar head group alcohol attached by a phosphodiester bond.

Galactolipids, Sulfolipids are common in plant membranes.

Sulfolipids contain sulfate.

Archeal lipids have hydrocarbons linked the glycerol by bonds that are more stable in acidic or high temperature environments.

Sphingolipids do not contain glycerol.

Archeal lipids, Sphingolipids, Glycerophospholipids can contain phosphate.
