• Monomers are glycerol and fatty acids
• Creates different polymers
  • 1 glycerol, 3 fatty acids creates triglyceride
  • 1 glycerol, 2 fatty acids creates diglyceride
  • 1 glycerol, 1 fatty acid creates monoglyceride
  • 1 glycerol, 2 fatty acids, phosphate creates phospholipid
• Can be saturated or unsaturated with hydrogen
  • Unsaturated fats are bent
  • Saturated fats experience stronger LDFs
• Steroids
  • Cholestorol
    • Creates gaps, allows for movement
