1Lipids are classified into
- ASimple
- BComplex
- CDerived and Miscellaneous (rozmaite)
- DAll answers are good
2Which types belong to the simple lipids?
- AFats and oils, Waxes /wosk/
- BPhospholipids
- CGlycolipids
- DLipoproteins
3Complex lipids are
- AEsters of fatty acids with alcohols containing additional groups such as phosphate, nitrogenous base, carbohydrate, protein
- BEsters of fatty acids with alcohol
4Which type contains lipoproteins?

- ASimple lipids
- BCompound lipids
5Soluble vitamins, steroid hormones, hydrocarbons and ketone bodies.
What type of lipids are these- ADerived lipids / pochodne /
- BSimple lipids
- CCompounds lipids
- DMiscellaneous lipid / rozmaite /
6Function of the simple lipids
- AFats found in the subcutoneous tissue and around certain organs serves as thermal insulators
- BTriacylglycerols (fats) primarily stored in the adipose tissue are concentrated fuel reserves of the body
- CConstituents of membranes,, source of fat soluble (A, D, E and K) vitamins and metabolic regulators
7What are fatty acids?
- ACarboxylic acids with hydrocarbon side chain. They are the simplest form of lipids.
- BMacromolecular complexes of lipids with proteins.
8How do we divide fatty acids?
- AEsterified and free (unesterified) fatty acids.
- BSaturated fatty acids, unsaturated fatty acids
9Which answer is true
- ASaturated fatty acids do not contain double bond
- BUnsaturated fatty acids contain one or more double bonds
- CFatty acids with one double bond are monounsaturated, and those with 2 or more double bonds are collectivelv known as polyunsaturated fafty acids (PUFA)
10Essential fatty acids:
- ALinoleic acid
- BLinolenic acid
- CPolyunsaturated fatty acids that cannot be synthesized by the body
11Function of essential fatty acids
- APrevention of fatty liver, Transport of cholesterol
- BMembrane structure and function
- CFormation of lipoprotein
12Which one has 1 double bond

- Asaturated
- Bmonounsaturated
- Cpolyunsaturated
13Which property is about digestion of fat in the gastrointestinal tract?
- AHydrolysis
- BSaponification
- CLipid peroxidation
14The hydrolysis of triacylglycerols by alkali to produce glycerol and soaps is known as
Triacylglycerol + 3 NaOH ---------+ Clycerol + 3 R-COONa (soaps)- AHydrolysis
- BSaponification
15Rancidity
- AUndergo stepwise enzymatic hydrolysis to finally liberate free fatty acids and glycero
- BDeterioration / pogorszenie / of fats and oils resulting in an unpleasant taste
16In the living cells, lipids undergo oxidation to produce peroxides and free radicals which can damage the tissue.
- ALipid peroxidation in vivo
- BHydrolysis
- CSaponification
17What represents D in this steroid nucleus?

- ACyclopentane
- BPhenanthrene
18Which of the following belong to the steroids?
- ACholesterol
- BTriacylglycerols
- CBile acid
- DSex hormones
- EVitamin D
19Which one occurs in plants?
- ACholesterol
- BErgosterol
20Cholesterol DOES NOT synthesis bile acid, vit D, sex hormones
- ATrue
- BFalse
21Which one represents the ergosterol?
- A

- B

- A
22Which lipids possess polar or hydrophilic groups which tend to be soluble in water
- AAmphipathic lipids
- BCholesterol
- CPhospholipids
- DTriacyglycerol
23In case of biological membranes, a bilayer of lipids is formed orienting the polar heads to the interior phase and the nonpolar tails into the outer aqueous phase.
- ATrue
- BFalse
24How many non polar tail(s) has phospholipid?
- A1
- B2
- C3
25Spherical vesicles formed by amphipathic lipids transporting particles
- AEmulsions
- BLiposomes
26Enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of fats (lipids)
- ALipase
- BLactase
- CAlcohol dehydrogenase
27Main enzyme that breaks down dietary fats in the human digestive system
- APancreatic lipase
- BLingual lipase
- CGastric lipase
- DBreast milk lipase
28Where does lingual lipase act?
- AIn mouth
- BIn stomach
- CIn small intestine
29In stomach, secreted by a chief cells?
- ALingual lipase
- BGastric lipase
- CPancreatic lipase
30Pancreatic lipase, is water soluble and can only work at the surface of fat globules. So breaking up of fat globules into much smaller droplets is necessary:
- ASaponification
- BEmulsification
31Which one is Micelle

- AA
- BB
- CC
32What transport the poorly soluble monoglycerides and fatty acids to the surface of the enterocyte where they can be absorbed
- AMicelles
- BLiposomes
33Which form lipids are transported in the blood stream? . Free lipids are undetectable in blood
- AGlycolipids
- BPhospholipids
- CLipoproteins
34Lipolysis is increased by:
- AGlucagone
- BInsulin
- CThyroxine
- DNorepinephrine
35Triacylglycerol (TG) synthesis mostly occurs in
- AHeart
- BLiver
- CMuscles
- DAdipose tissue
36DiHydroxyAcetone phospahte DHAP is reduced by glycerol 3-phosphate dehydrogenase to
- AGlycerol 3-phosphate
- BDiAcylGlycerol
37 Phospholipid synthesis occurs in the
- ALiver
- BMuscles
