Glycolipids: Lipids covalently bonded to carbohydrates
Glycoprotein: Proteins covalently bonded to carbohydrates
Amino acids: the building blocks of proteins. The structure contains an amine (-NH2), a carboxyl functional group (-COOH) and a side chain (R).
Fatty acids: make the hydrophobic tails of the phospholipid that makes up the cell membrane.

Chemistry of Life
Golgi Apparatus is the "center of manufacturing, warehousing, sorting and shipping" inside animal and plant cells.
At the Golgi apparatus, products made at the ER (endoplasmic reticulum) such as proteins and lipids are modified, stored, and then sent to other destinations. Some molecules that are modified at the Golgi apparatus are glycolipids and glycoproteins. It is an organelle also specialized for secretions of cell materials.
