Answer:
The triglyceride made from glycerol, myristic acid, palmitic acid and cis-oleic acid is shown in the attached pictures.
Explanation:
A triglyceride or triacylglyceride is an ester derived from glycerol and three fatty acids. The fatty acids of this exercise are myristic acid, palmitic acid and oleic acid.
A fatty acid is a biomolecule of lipid nature formed by a long linear hydrocarbon chain, of different length or number of carbon atoms, at the end of which is a carboxyl group.
The myristic acid has a carbon chain of 14 carbon atoms with a carboxyl group at one end.
Palmitic acid has a carbon chain of 16 carbon atoms with a carboxyl group at one end.
Oleic acid has a carbon chain of 18 carbon atoms with a carboxyl group at one end and a double bond at position 9.
Triglyceride is formed by the esterification of the glycerol oxidrile group and the carboxyl acid group.
