Humans have been saturating vegetable oils into Fats by passing hydrogen, in presence of nickel as a catalyst in industry since long. And in human body large amount, almost 15 to 20 kg, Fat is stored in 'Fat cells'. Which is there in people eating vegetable diet also. It means body has a mechanism to 'saturate' oils into Fat. Human body can not add double bond to Fats after tenths carbon so you have to take 'essential' Fatty acids like Linoleic and Linolenic acid and Arachidonic acids in your diet.
Saturated fatty acids have only single carbon-carbon bonds.
Saturated fatty acids do not have double bonds between carbon atoms and unsaturated.
when fat releases energy is it in a unsaturated fatty acid chain
Not all of the atoms. The carbon atoms connected by a double bond in an unsaturated fatty acid have less rotational mobility than the carbon atoms connected by a single bond in a saturated fatty acid.
Unsaturated fatty acids have double carbon bonds.
no, it is not even a fatty acid.
The double chain in the unsaturated fatty acid cause it to bent; unlike saturated fatty acid which has no double bond, is straight
The double chain in the unsaturated fatty acid cause it to bent; unlike saturated fatty acid which has no double bond, is straight
an unsaturated fatty acid that has been changed to a saturated fatty acid
The double chain in the unsaturated fatty acid cause it to bent; unlike saturated fatty acid which has no double bond, is straight
Saturated fatty acids have only single carbon-carbon bonds.
saturated fatty acid
This fat is called a saturated fatty acid.
Yes, fatty acids are considered saturated when they have all the hydrogen atoms it can hold.
A saturated fatty acid is a fatty acid whose carbon chain contains no free bonding points. Because it cannot bond to any other hydrogen atoms, it is considered saturated, or filled.
Saturated fatty acids have only single carbon-carbon bonds.
palmitic acid, stearic acid
