Triglycerides are formed by combining glycerol and three fatty acids. Specifically, the hydroxil groups of the glycerol join the carboxyl group of the fatty acid to form ester bonds.
Phospholipids are made up of two fatty acids namely: long chains of hydrogen and carbon molecules and they are attached to the glycerol "head".
Based on their individual structure, the difference between the two is the number of fatty acids they both contain. Triglycerides has three fatty acids while phospholipids only have two.

Complete question:
Which organisms are secondary consumers in a temperate coniferous forest? Select all that apply:
Answer:
The lynx and the wolf are the only secondary consumers on the list.
Explanation:
In the trophic web, the energy transference occurs when each organism feeds on the preceding link and is eaten by the following link.
The first ones are the autotroph organism or producer, such as a vegetable, that can synthesize organic matter from inorganic matter.
The following links are the consumers: herbivores are primary consumers and feed on producers. <u>Carnivores are secondary consumers and feed on herbivores</u>, and so on. The last links are the decomposers, microorganisms that act on dead animals degrading organic matter.
According to the definition of secondary consumers, among the animals on the list, we can assume that the lynx and the wolf are the only secondary consumers. They are both carnivores and feed on herbivores.
On the other hand, the moose and the elk, are both first consumers.
