1. lipid molecules contain either saturated or unsaturated fatty acids. you may have seen different types of fatty acids listed in nutrition labels on foods. based on what you have learned about fatty acids, bonding, and naming of chemical compounds, see if you can make an educated guess as to what the chemical structures of the following fatty acids are. (6 points) a. monounsaturated fatty acids: b. polyunsaturated fatty acids:

Monounsaturated fatty acids has one double bond. Polyunsaturated fatty acids has more than one double bond.

Explanation:

Fatty acids are molecules that within their structure contain a long hydrocarbon chain and a carboxylic acid group. When there are double bonds within the hydrocarbon chain, these double bonds are said to be unsaturations. When it only contains a double bond it is monounsaturated. When there are several double bonds.

I hope my answer helps you.

Monounsaturated fatty acids as illustrated by mono which means single or one,it has one double bond.

Polyunsaturated fatty acids as illustrated by its name poly means multiple which means it can have one or more double bonds.
