Saponifiable Lipids
• Undergo hydrolysis in basic solution
• Contain ester bonds
Non-saponifiable Lipids
• Cannot undergo hydrolysis
• Lack ester bonds
Simple Lipids
• Consist of fatty acids and an alcohol
Compound Lipids
• Consists of fatty additional group (s)
along with fatty acids and alcohol.

How do lipids
contribute to your
overall health?
ASSIGNMENT:
Research a specific type of lipid and write a 3 to 4-
page report covering its definition, functions in the
human body, classification by chemical
composition and saponification properties, health
implications (dietary sources, recommended intake,
and health risks), and a conclusion summarizing key
points. Use at least 3 credible sources and cite them
in APA 7th edition format.
Grading Rubrics:
Criteria Points Description
Content 40 Completeness of information,
including definition, functions,
classification, health
implications, dietary sources,
and health risks.
Research Quality 20 Use of at least 3 credible
sources that are relevant and
well-integrated into the report.
Organization 15 Clear structure with logical flow,
appropriate headings, and
overall coherence.
Citations 15 Proper citation of sources in-text
and a complete reference list in
APA 7th edition format.
Presentation 10 Adherence to formatting
guidelines (length, font, spacing)
and overall professionalism of
the report.
