00:01 Hello students, first of this question let us understand the given diagram.
00:04 So it is the diagram of a difference between fatty acids and high glycerides.
00:10 So the fatty acid is a carboxy acid which consists of a hydrocarbon chain and a terminal carboxyl group which is c1o.
00:26 So especially any of those appearing as a a esters in fat and oils.
00:32 Whereas triglycerides is an astor formed from glycerol and three fatty acid groups.
00:39 Basically, triglyceride is a combination of fatty acid and glycerols and triglycerides.
00:45 Glissorytrylaclyceride is the very first lipid, serving as the main constituent of natural fats and oils.
00:54 Then fatty acids are one of the two types of structural components of tritelaclycerides, whereas the main constituent of fat, triglycerides is a main constituent of fat, tricelicide is a main constituent of lipid...
