Lipids that are saturated have two hydrogen atoms attatched to all carbon atoms
Lipids that are unsaturated have one or more carbon atoms double bonded, creating fewer hydrogen atoms attatched to the carbon backbone
when there is no double bond between carbon atoms in fatty acid are called satruated fatty acid
general formula: CH3(CH2)COOH
one there is one or more double bond in carbon atoms in fatty acid are present they are called unsturated fatty acid
It is due to the double bonds in unsaturated fats, and the lack of these in saturated fats.
All natural dietary fats contain a mix of sat. and unsat. fats, but the greater the proportion of unsat. fat, the lower the melting point.

the answer is false......for Plato also :)
Their structure, one has a straight line the other doesn't. Their function is quite different.
true
Unsaturated fat is liquid at room temperature and comes from plants. Saturated fat is solid at room temperature and comes from animals.
Saturated. Saturated Fats are solid at room temperature (like butter), whereas Unsaturated fats are liquid at room temperature (like Vegetable oils).
The product that comes from animals that is solid at room temperature is saturated fat. Unsaturated fat is a liqiud at room temperature.
True. Saturated fats have a higher melting point and tend to be solid at room temperature, while unsaturated fats have a lower melting point and are typically liquid oils at room temperature.
In general, yes. Unsaturated fats are liquid at room temperature and saturated fats are solid at room temperature.
Chemically, saturated fats have more hydrogen atoms on the fat molecules.Practically, saturated fats are solid at room temperature (butter, lard, coconut oil) while unsaturated fats are liquid at room temperature (olive and other liquid vegetable oils).
True A+
it is true
No! the other way around. Unsaturated fats are liquid at room temp whereas saturated fats are solid!
A fat can be a solid or a liquid. Normally we refer to a liquid fat as an 'oil', but this is for a fatty compound that is liquid at room temperature. All fats can be liquified or solidified, and will still be called 'fats' no matter what.
True A+
A saturated fat has more hydrogen atoms attached to the main fat molecule.Saturated fats tend to be solid at room temperature (example--butter)Unsaturated fats tend to be liquid at room temperature (example--olive oil)
