Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Fats are a class of lipids containing two kinds of monomers, fatty acids, and glycerol.
Detailed explanation-2: -Lipids are an essential component of the cell membrane. The structure is typically made of a glycerol backbone, 2 fatty acid tails (hydrophobic), and a phosphate group (hydrophilic).
Detailed explanation-3: -Therefore, it is proposed that glycerol is a monomer of suberins in general and can cross-link aliphatic and aromatic suberin domains, corresponding to the electron-translucent and electron-opaque suberin lamellae, respectively.
