some kind of fat molecule, or a mutated soaking cat.
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.
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.
Double covalent bonds. My sources: I got it right on my quiz. (:

Alkanes have single bonds only and are therefore saturated. A hydrocarbon is unsaturated if there are multiple bonds or rings within the compound. Alkenes contain double bonds, alkynes contain triple bonds, and cycloalkanes contain rings; these are unsaturated hydrocarbons. But alkanes are saturated.

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.
Proteins are neither saturated nor unsaturated.
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...

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.
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.
it is 86% unsaturated
why it is significant to know wheter a solution is saturated or unsaturated
It has saturated.
saturated
Saturated hydrocarbon does not decolourise bromine water while unsaturated hydrocarbon decolourize it.
