Fat is not a polymere, however most fats are threefold esters of glycerol (1,2,3-propanetriol) and three (different) long chain fatty acids.
Example:
stearine (or tristearin, or glyceryl tristearate) is made by esterfication (three times):
C3H5(OH)3 + 3 C17H35COOH → C3H5(C18H35O2)3 + 3 H2O
The two monomers for fats are glycerol and fatty acids. Glycerol is a three-carbon alcohol, and fatty acids are long hydrocarbon chains with a carboxyl group at one end. When they combine through a condensation reaction, they form triglycerides, the primary form of fats in our bodies.
pancrelipase is the enzyme that breaks down protein and fat
Polymers of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins are all synthesized from monomers through the process of dehydration synthesis or condensation reaction. In this process, monomers are joined together by removing a water molecule, which forms a covalent bond between the monomers, resulting in the formation of a polymer.
No, essential oils are not saponifiable because they do not contain the necessary fatty acids to undergo the saponification process. Saponification typically involves the reaction of fats or oils with an alkali to produce soap. Essential oils are concentrated extracts from plants that are not chemically similar to fats or oils.
Fats are triglycerides they belong to LIPIDS class of organic compounds.
The monomers that make up fats are called fatty acids.
Polymers, they are lipids which are long carbon chains
Triglycerides are the monomers for lipids. Lipids are a diverse group of macromolecules that include fats, oils, phospholipids, and steroids, and they play important roles in energy storage, cell structure, and signaling in organisms.

The healthiest oils are oils that have polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats. The healthiest oils are oils packed with saturated fats.
Oils and fats dissolve in other fats and oils, as they are non-polar molecules. They do not dissolve in water, which is a polar molecule.
Lipids are commonly called fats and oils.
unsaturated fats
The fats, oils, and waxes found in living things are known as lipids.
A molecule that is found in oils and fats is triglycerides.
Animal fats are lipid materials, both oils and fats. Fats and oils are both made up of triglycerides. Oils are liquid at room temperature and fats are solid.
