Because,
In alkenes&alkynes,there exists atleast One double bond(pi bond) which is relatively weaker than sigma bond(There are no pi bonds in alkanes.Hence they are saturated).Hence they are unsaturated.

∙ 15y agoAlkenes and alkynes are called unsaturated because they have other than single bonds within their structure. Alkenes have a double bond and alkynes have a triple bond.

An organic compound burns with a sooty flame is it a saturated or unsaturated compound?
hydrocarbons, in general.
Are carboxylic acids are unsaturated or saturated compounds?
They are saturated compounds
Why aromatic diazo compounds are more stable than aliphatic diazo compounds?
aromatic diazo compounds are stabilize by resonance where as in alifati it is not found
Is p-chlorobenzoic acid saturated?
No. it is an unsaturated (aromatic) compound.
Where are aromatic compounds usually found?
The aromatic compounds or benzene is mostly found in plant and tree oils. The compound is gathered by coal distillation.
Is saturated hydrocarbon ionic?
No one hydrocarbon is ionic, saturated , unsaturated and aromatic all hydrocarbons are covalent compounds.
Why many aromatic hydrocarbons do not have any odor while compounds that have a pleasant odor do not have aromatic rings?
when aromatic compounds were first discovered they were called aromatic due to their plesant odours but as you have rightly pointed out compouns such as diatomic hydrogen have pleasant smells its is becuase of this that the meaning of aromaticity changed as aromatic compounds are saturated stable compounds its the notion of delocalised electrons that defines a aromatic compound now as this enhances the stabilty of the compound so chemically aromatic and aromatic are not particularly synoynymous any more in fact chemical aromacity has very little to do with aromacity and ewhat it does to the oliafactory centres that gives us the perception of smell
is glucose is saturated or unsaturated?
aromatic

Why anti aromatic compounds have unpaired electrons?
Not all the anti aromatic compounds have the unpaired electrons, for example cycloocta tetraene
Is an aromatic compound any compound that has a distinct color?
It is false; aromatic compounds is a category of organic compounds with specific odor or color.But many other chemicals have a specific odor or color but they are not aromatic compounds (of course, in the chemical sense).
Is p-chlorobenzoic acid saturated?
No. it is an unsaturated (aromatic) compound.
