- - - - Saturated
        
        Only single bonds between C
        
        Linear
        
        Packed with H
        
        Solid at room temperature
      - Unsaturated
        
        Has double bonds between C
        
        H are on the same side of a double bond
        
        Double bonds create kinks in structure - this keeps molecules not so packed
        
        Molecule is bend
        
        Liquide at room temperature
        
        Mono
        
        Poly
      - Trans
        
        H are on the opposite sides of a double bond
        
        Linear
      - Omega
        
        Omega 3
        
        Consist of alfa-linoleic acid (ALA)
        
        Omega 6
        
        Consist of linoleic acid (LA)
  - - - Glycerol
      - 2 fatty acids (hydrophobic)
      - Phosphate group (hydrophilic)
  - - - HDL (high-density) - good, protective effects
      - LDL (low-density) - bad
