The Biological Importance of Lipids Lipids are organic compounds found in all types of plant and animal cells. They always contain carbon‚ hydrogen and oxygen‚ however the relative amount of oxygen is less than the amount of carbohydrates in lipids. Lipids are polymers and the long chains of repeating units are joined together in a condensation reaction where water is also produced. The most common types of lipids are triglycerides‚ phospholipids and waxes. Triglycerides are formed by three fatty

When comparing the predicted theoretical values to those achieved in this experiment‚ a 35% efficiency was achieved overall. This suggests that while the insulation worked to some extent‚ it was not as high as it could have been. Achieving an efficiency that is as high as possible is important to maximise the amount of energy transferred into the water (or alternate substance which the temperature difference

Introduction A polymer is a large molecule comprised of numerous smaller molecules. It is possible for these large molecules to be linear‚ moderately branched‚ or highly interconnected. In the latter case the structure progresses into a large three-dimensional complex. The small molecules that serve as the basic building blocks for these large molecules are known as monomers (See Figure 1.1). An example of the relationship between a monomer and polymer is the commercially important material polyvinylchloride

The Effect of Volcanic Eruptions on Climate Introduction Recently there has been a lot of research in the field of climate change‚ and much of it is focused on anthropogenic affects on climate. However‚ there has also been a great deal of research focused on natural Earth processes and how they affect the climate (Robock 2000). One natural process which significantly impacts climate is volcanic eruptions. Volcanic eruptions affect the climate of the earth in many ways (Zielinski et al 1997). Volcanic
