 *'''Fatty acids'''.-
-**<scene name='60/603296/Acidosgrasos/6'>Palmitic acid</scene>, a saturated 16 carbon fatty acid. Look its <scene name='60/603296/Acidosgrasos/3'>carboxyle group</scene>, an its  <scene name='60/603296/Acidosgrasos/5'>long hydrocarbon chain</scene>.
+**<scene name='60/603296/Acidosgrasos/6'>Palmitic acid</scene>, a saturated 16 carbon fatty acid. Notice its <scene name='60/603296/Acidosgrasos/3'>carboxyl group</scene>, and its  <scene name='60/603296/Acidosgrasos/5'>long hydrocarbon chain</scene>.
 **<scene name='60/603296/Oleico/1'>Oleic acid</scene>, a ''monounsaturated'' 18 carbon fatty acid. Most monounsaturated natural fatty acids are <scene name='60/603296/Oleico/2'>cis-unsaturated</scene>.
-**<scene name='60/603296/Linoleico/1'>Linoleic acid</scene>, a ''polyunsaturated'' 18 carbon fatty acid. con <scene name='60/603296/Linoleico/2'>two double bounds</scene> with ''cis'' configuration.
+**<scene name='60/603296/Linoleico/1'>Linoleic acid</scene>, a ''polyunsaturated'' 18 carbon fatty acid. This fatty acid has <scene name='60/603296/Linoleico/2'>two double bounds</scene> with ''cis'' configuration.
 **<scene name='60/603296/Linolenico/2'>Linolenic acid</scene>, another  ''polyunsaturated'' 18 carbon fatty acid with <scene name='60/603296/Linolenico/4'>three double bounds</scene>

 **<scene name='60/603296/Triglicerido/1'>Triglycerides</scene>.- Zoom on <scene name='60/603296/Triglicerido/6'>triglyceride structure</scene>.
 **'''Waxes'''.- for instance <scene name='72/721496/Cera/1'>bee wax</scene>.
 **<scene name='60/603296/Fosfoglicerido/2'>Phosphoglycerides</scene>.- lipids composed of <scene name='60/603296/Fosfoglicerido/3'>glycerol</scene>, <scene name='60/603296/Fosfoglicerido/4'>two fatty acids</scene>, <scene name='60/603296/Fosfoglicerido/6'>phosphoric acid</scene> and a polar compound like  <scene name='60/603296/Fosfoglicerido/7'>ethanolamine</scene>.
-**'''Sphingolipids'''.- all o them include in their structure the ''amino alcohol'' <scene name='72/721496/Esfingosina/1'>sphingosine</scene>. Sphingosine bind to a fatty acid to yield <scene name='60/603296/ceramide/1'>ceramida</scene>, the common structural feature of all sphingolipids.
