against heat loss (eg. blubber of whales)

Buoyancy


The low density of fat tissue increases the ability of animals to float more easily

Protection

The adipose tissue in mammals contains stored triglycerides and this tissue helps protect

organs from the risk of damage

Exam Tip

It is common to be asked why triglycerides are energy reserves (they store more energy per

gram due to their hydrocarbon chains).

2.2.6 PHOSPHOLIPIDS

The Vital Role of Phospholipids

Structure

Phospholipids are a type of lipid, therefore they are formed from the monomer glycerol and

fatty acids

Unlike triglycerides, there are only two fatty acids bonded to a glycerol molecule in a

phospholipid as one has been replaced by a phosphate ion (PO

3-

)



As the phosphate is polar it is soluble in water (hydrophilic)

The fatty acid ‘tails’ are non-polar and therefore insoluble in water (hydrophobic)



Phospholipids are the major components of cell surface membranes. They have fatty acid

tails that are hydrophobic and a phosphate head, that is hydrophilic, attached to a
