Which form of fatty acids occur in humans most commonly?
Fatty acids in their cis form
An alcohol that reacts with fatty acids to form fats?
This alcohol is glycerol. They form lipids when fatty acids attach to them.
In what form do lipids enter the cells of the body?
As fatty acids or oils
What are unsaturated fatty acids?
Unsaturated fatty acids are fatty acids that have double bonds in their long carbon chains.
What is a union of glycerol and fatty acids to form fat an example of?
dehydration reaction
Which form of fatty acids occur in humans most commonly?
Fatty acids in their cis form
Why are cis fatty acids rearranged to trans fatty acids in the process of partial hydrogenation?
CIS fatty acids are the most common form. They rearrange to form trans fatty acids during the hydrogenation of edible oils.

How does Trans Fatty Acid influence Heart Disease?
Yes, and is actually worse than the sys form of fatty acids. The only difference between sys and trans fatty acids are the angles of the molecules. In nature, only sys fatty acids are made, but through chemistry (or through over heating oils), we are able to make trans fatty acids. The problem is that your body can only recognize the sys form. So if you have sys fatty acids in your body, your body knows how to remove them, but if you have trans fatty acids in your body, your body doesn't know how to remove them. As a result the trans fatty acids build up in your system and can cause heart disease. Sys fatty acids can cause heart disease also, but since your body is constantly removing them, it forms slower than the trans form.
