What purpose do lipids serve in the human body?
Lipids are concentrated sources of energy and provide fuel for aerobic respiration. Lipids are a source of metabolic water. during respiration stored lipids are metabolized for energy, producing water and carbon dioxide. Stored lipids provide insulation. increased body fat levels in winter reduce heat losses to the environment.
How do lipids work?
Lipids are important to the human body since they helps produce hormones, and builds cell membranes and other needed tissue. Lipids, both lipoproteins and triglycerides, are made and stored in the body and are used as energy sources. Lipids also play a major role in cardiovascular health answer by karen
What are lipid carriers?
lipids being insoluble in water are transported in the body in the form of lipoproteins. These lipoproteins transport lipids from the intestine and the liver to the locations where the are oxidized or to adipose tissues where they are stored.
Why is important to know if a drug is water or lipid soluble?
Water and lipids (fat) react differently in the body. The lipids are stored by the body and the water is absorbed into the body. Certain drugs and conditions may interfere with the ability to absorb them and to much of them can cause illness.
