Introduction:
Lipids are organic compounds which have hydrogen and carbon compounds linked by non-polar covalent bonds. Lipids have both hydrophilic and hydrophobic regions. Most lipids are insoluble in water and are referred to being as hydrophobic in nature. Fats have glycerol and fatty acids, and are referred to as triacylglycerol. The fatty acids are classified into saturated and unsaturated fatty acids.

Which of the following differentiates erythrose with erythrulose?
O Erythrose has 2 chiral carbon while erythrulose has 1 chiral carbon
Erythrose is a pentose while erythrulose is hexose
O Erythrose is ketose while eythrulose is an aldose
Erythrose bears the ketone group while erythrulose bears the aldehyde group.
This is the compound tagatose. Is this an aldose or a ketose?
