they can take different forms, the forms at liquid solid and gas.
Solid fats have a high proportion of saturated fats.
Solid fats have a high proportion of saturated fats.
Solid fats have a high proportion of saturated fats.
Fats that are solid at room temperature are called saturated fats.
Solid fats have a high proportion of saturated fats.
Saturated fats.

Loosely speaking, "saturated" in fats means "solid at room temperature".
No, the opposite is true. Unsaturated fats are usually liquid at room temperature, while saturated fats are usually solid. This is because saturated fats have a higher melting point due to their straight molecular structure, which allows them to pack tightly together.
Hydrogenated oils are made from liquid vegetable or seed oils and are created to mimic saturated fats. Saturated fats are those that are solid at room temperature. Hydrogenation, the process of polymerizing liquid fats[oils] by heating and injecting hydrogen gas into them, creates "trans-fats", or solid "plasticated" fats which we now know, (or are told), are worse for us than the saturated fats they were designed to replace. ANY fats that are solid at room temperature are either saturated fats or trans-fats.
Solid. At room temperature, saturated fats have a higher melting point than unsaturated fats, causing them to be solid. This is due to the chemical structure of saturated fats, which lack double bonds and allow the fatty acid chains to pack closely together.
Saturated fatty acids are formed from carbon to carbon single bonds. These molecules are typically solid at room temperature and are commonly found in animal fats and some plant oils. Consuming too many saturated fats can increase the risk of heart disease.
