How Alcohol is Measured in the Body. People may drink the same amount of a beverage, but the percentage of alcohol in the blood depends on gender, body weight, strength of the drink, size of the drink, whether there is food in the stomach, and time spent drinking.
A triglyceride (TG, triacylglycerol, TAG, or triacylglyceride) is an ester derived from glycerol and three fatty acids (from tri- and glyceride). Triglycerides are the main constituents of body fat in humans and other animals, as well as vegetable fat.
Lipogenesis is the process by which glycerol is esterified with free fatty acids to form triglyceride. Dietary fat (triglycerides), when ingested with food, is absorbed by the gut. Being apolar (poorly water-soluble), triglycerides are transported in the form of plasma-lipoproteins called chylomicrons.
