Module 7 - Science 10 - 2019-2020

This document provides information about lipids as presented in a science module from Dolores National High School. It defines lipids as water insoluble biomolecules composed of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen that are found in cell membranes and hormones. The main types of lipids discussed are fats, oils, and steroids. Fats and oils are triglycerides made of glycerol and fatty acids, with fats being solid and containing saturated fatty acids, and oils being liquid and containing unsaturated fatty acids. Steroids include cholesterol, which plays an important role in animal cell membranes. Lipids are an important way the body stores energy from calories.

Subject: SCIENCE 10
Topic: BIOMOLECULES
Prepared by: Ms. Evangeline G. Abril Noted by: Donny Aris C. Malvar, Ed.D

I. Objectives:
 Describe Lipids
 Identify the different types of lipids and their importance
II. Reference:
Science Learner’s Material 10
III. Topic Title:
Lipids

Lipids is the second type of biomolecules that can be found in hormones and
cell membrane component. Lipids have the job of storing energy for later use. Lipids
have structural types such as carboxylic acids or fatty acids, triglycerides or neutral fats,
steroids, and waxes.
Lipids are water insoluble molecules that are composed of carbon, hydrogen
and oxygen. Fats and oils are triglycerides that are combinations of glycerol and three
fatty acids.

IV. Summary:
 Fats and Oils – The most abundant lipids.
 Fats are solid at room temperature and contain saturated fatty acids.
 Lard and Butter are examples of animal fats.
 Oils are liquids at room temperature and contain unsaturated fatty acids
 Vegetable oil, corn oil, and olive oil are oils that have been produced by
plants.
 Steroids are another class of lipids whose molecules are composed of
fused rings of atoms.
 Cholesterol is considered as the most important steroid.
 Cholesterol is a sterol because of the presence of alcohol or the
hydroxyl functional group.
 Cholesterol is found mainly in animal cells although cell membranes of
plants may contain small quantities of cholesterol as well as its major
derivatives.
 Cholesterol plays an important role in eukaryotes and especially
abundant in cell membranes of animal cells.
 Calorie is a unit of heat energy.
 Calories are provided by fats, carbohydrates, and proteins.
 Fats have the higher concentration of calories.
