No! the other way around. Unsaturated fats are liquid at room temp whereas saturated fats are solid!
Something is saturated when every available space is filled with liquid, and something is unsaturated when some or all of the spaces inside the contain air.
Not all lipids are saturated. Unsaturated lipids come in liquid form and are not from animals. Saturated lipids are in solid form and do usually come from organisms other than plants such as animals.
Yes, butter is a type of saturated fat. Unsaturated fats would be oils - things that are liquid at room tenperature.
They are saturated compounds

Saturated. Saturated Fats are solid at room temperature (like butter), whereas Unsaturated fats are liquid at room temperature (like Vegetable oils).

If it is humid it is saturated. If it is dry it is unsaturated.
Proteins are neither saturated nor unsaturated.
the difference is in the backbone... if the backbone is unsaturated then it is an unsaturated polyester, if the backbone is saturated then it is a saturated polyester...
Unsaturated fat is liquid at room temperature and comes from plants. Saturated fat is solid at room temperature and comes from animals.
Saturated
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).
Not all lipids are saturated. Unsaturated lipids come in liquid form and are not from animals. Saturated lipids are in solid form and do usually come from organisms other than plants such as animals.
