    b. Diglycerides. Because the two carbons of the glycerol molecule will be esterified with two fatty acids(hence a diglyceride) and the third carbon will be attached to phosphate group which will form a phosphatidic acid which is the basic/common structure of phospholipids found in cell membrane.
