1. Glycerol

2. Fatty acids

3. Monoglycerides

4. Triglycerides

5. Hydrocarbon

6. Hydrophobic

Explanation:

1. Glycerol

Fat consist of a molecule called glycerol that is attached to one, two, or three fatty acids. Glycerol is the basis of all fats and consists of a three-carbon chain that is attached to the fatty acids.

2. Fatty acids

Fats is made up of three fatty acids and a glycerol, it can also be called triacylglycerols or triglycerides.

3. Monoglyceride

It is a glycerol molecule with a singular fatty acid. It is formed through the combination of OH of glycerol to the OH of the fatty acid.

4. Triglycerides

It has three fatty acid molecules. It is a tri-esters made up of a glycerol attached to three fatty acid molecules.

5. Hydrocarbon

Fatty acids is made up of long, unbranched hydrocarbons with a carboxylic acid group found at one end.

6. Hydrophobic

The hydrophobic nature of fat arises from the carbon-hydrogen bonds that are nonpolar.

1. One molecule of glycerol

2. A fatty acid

3. Monoglyceride

4. Triglyceride

5. Long Hydrocarbon chain

6. Hydrophobic
