How are unsaturated fatty acids related to lipids?
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.
Are unsaturated tails of lips hydrophilic?
No, unsaturated tails of lipids are hydrophobic, meaning they repel water. The presence of double bonds in the unsaturated tails creates kinks that prevent the tails from packing tightly together and make them more fluid.
What do fatty acid tails have one or more of in unsaturated fats?
Double covalent bonds. My sources: I got it right on my quiz. (:
How would you differentiate between saturated unsaturated and super saturated?
JABOL
Why can't Glycogen and starch be either saturated or unsaturated?
Glycogen and starch are polysaccharides made up of glucose units, and they do not contain fatty acid chains like lipids, which are classified as saturated or unsaturated based on the presence of double bonds in their fatty acid tails. Saturation refers specifically to the hydrogen saturation of carbon chains in fats and oils. Since glycogen and starch are carbohydrate polymers without fatty acids, they do not possess the structural characteristics necessary to be classified as saturated or unsaturated.

What is the difference between saturated and unsaturated fatty acid tails in terms of their structure and properties?
Saturated fatty acid tails have no double bonds between carbon atoms, making them straight and tightly packed, leading to solid fats at room temperature. Unsaturated fatty acid tails have double bonds, causing a kink in their structure, making them liquid at room temperature.
Is protein saturated or unsaturated?
Proteins are neither saturated nor unsaturated.
Explain the difference between a saturated and an unsaturated polyester?
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...

Is the air in the room saturated or unsaturated?
To determine if the air in the room is saturated or unsaturated, you would need to measure the humidity level. If the humidity level is at 100%, then the air is saturated. If it is below 100%, then the air is unsaturated.
How does a graph show a saturated solution and a unsaturated solution?
A graph can illustrate what solution is saturated and unsaturated. If the point is on the line, then the solution is saturated, while if is below the line, the solution is unsaturated.
Is safflower oil saturated or unsaturated?
it is 86% unsaturated
Why is it significant to know wheather a solution is saturated or unsaturated?
why it is significant to know wheter a solution is saturated or unsaturated
Does stilton cheese have saturated or unsaturated fat in it?

Is sesame oil saturated or unsaturated fat?

What is the different between saturated and unsaturated?
Saturated hydrocarbon does not decolourise bromine water while unsaturated hydrocarbon decolourize it.
