Answer:

Glycerol+fatty acid=triacylglycerol+water

Explanation:

The above reaction is termed as lipogenesis which helps in the synthesis of triacylglycerol from glycerol 3 phosphate by various enzyme catalyzed steps.

     In general the OH part of -COOH group of fatty acid attacks the hydroxyl group of glycerol resulting in the formation of fatty acid ester of glycerol (triacylglycerol) and water is eliminated as a byproduct of this reaction.
