Name any 3 classes of phospholipids Solution Phospholipids are a group of complex amphipathetic molecules containing phosphoric acid along with fatty acids, nitrogenous base and alcohol. Classes of Phospholipids: 1. Phosphoglycerides or Glycerophospholipids : These phospholipids contain glycerol as the alcohol. They are present in the biological membranes. They contain C1 esterified with glycerol- 3-phosphate and C2 esterified with fatty acid. Types of phosphoglycerides: A.) Phosphotidic acid B) Phosphotidylcholine or lecithin C.) Phosphotidylethanolamine D.) Phosphotidylinositol E.) Phosphotidylinositol F.) Phosphotidylserine 2.) Sphingomyelins or sphingophospholipids contain sphingosine as the alcohol. It is attached by an amide linkage to fatty acid to produce ceramide..
