lipid insoluble in water, dissolves in other lipids
lipids composed of... C:H:O
three types of lipids fat, phospholipids, and steroids

how is the structure of a protein related to its function because it might break a bond causing it to change charges
how does an enzyme speed up chemical reactions they drag the parts into its active site because of its charges and squeezes it
hydrolysis put back monomers that were separated
