Although there are many types of lipids, the major examples to recognize are tested in this quiz.

First click on any graphic symbol, then try to figure out the name of the lipid compound - write both the structure and the name down. Finally click and hold the drop down menu box on the left to reveal the answer. Do not be too quick to look at the answer as this defeats the purpose of the exercise.
