Answer:
1. glycerol
2. fatty acid
3. monoglyceride
4. triglyceride
5. hydrocarbon chain
6. hydrophobic
Explanation:
A fat molecule is made up of two parts with one part been the glycerol backbone and three fatty acid tails. A fat molecule with just one fatty acid chain can be regarded as a monoglyceride and with three fatty acids, you have a triglycerides.
One end of the fatty acid is made up of even number carbon-carbon chains at one end and the -COOH on the other end making it a carboxylic acid. The hyrocarbon chains of the fatty acid is hydrophobic in nature and always cluster up in molecules such as in the biological cell meembrane.
The dendrites receive incoming signals while axons propagate signals away from the neuron cell body. The myelin sheath surrounds and insulates the axon.
