Ques. 1AIPMT 2003

Phospholipids are esters of glycerol with

  1. three carboxylic acid residues
  2. two carboxylic acid residues and one phosphate group
  3. one carboxylic acid residue and two phosphate groups
  4. three phosphate groups

Answer

(2) two carboxylic acid residues and one phosphate group

Solution

In a phospholipid (e.g. lecithin) two –OH groups of glycerol are esterified with fatty acids and the third –OH with phosphoric acid (often further linked to a base such as choline).

two carboxylic acid residues + one phosphate group

(Three carboxylic acid residues triglyceride, i.e. fat / oil.)

Answer: (2)
