Detailed explanation-1: -The three main types of lipids are triacylglycerols (also known as triglycerides), phospholipids, and sterols. 1) Triglycerides make up more than 95 percent of lipids in the diet and are commonly found in fried foods, butter, milk, cheese, and some meats.

Detailed explanation-2: -Triacylglycerol (Triglyceride) Triacylglycerol is the major form of dietary lipid in fats and oils, whether derived from plants or animals. Triacylglycerol is composed of three fatty acids esterified to a glycerol molecule (Figure 4).

Detailed explanation-4: -The milk fat consists mainly of triglycerides (approximately 98%) while other milk lipids are diacylglycerol (approximately 2% of the lipid fraction), cholesterol (less than 0.5%), phospholipids (approximately 1%) and free fatty acids (FFA) (approximately 0.1) [29].
