saturated fatty acid
no
No, it does not.
The difference is related to which long chain fatty acid is incorporated. If it is a fatty acid that has double bonds, then it is an unsaturated lipid. If it contains fatty acids that have no double bonds, then it is a saturated lipid.
No
palmitic acid, stearic acid
saturated fatty acid
Saturated - It has no double bonds

SATURATED FATTY ACIDS: Butyric Caproic Caprylic Capric Lauric Myristic Palmitic Stearic Arachidic Behenic Lignoceric
saturated
Butyric acid (butter), lauric acid (coconut oil, palm oil), myristic acid (cow's milk and dairy products), palmitic acid (palm oil and meats), and stearic acid (cocoa butter and meats).

... a saturated fatty acid: general formula: CH3(CH2)2nCOOH, with n = 0, 1, 2, 3, etc.
Palmitic acid
