Which factor causes the shapes of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids to differ?

Biology
1 answer:
lidiya [134]3 years ago
8 0

The answer is option C. Number of double covalent bonds between carbon atoms is responsible for causing different shapes of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids. The double covalent bond causes kink in the unsaturated fatty acids because of which their stacking is disrupted and they become loosely packed. The problem with double covalent bond is that unlike single covalent bond it can't rotate and has almost cis-configuration. This is also the reason behind their liquidity at room temperature.

What important role does the magnetic field play for our planet ?
Sedaia [141]

Earth's magnetic field serves to deflect most of the solar wind, whose charged particles would otherwise strip away the ozone layer that protects the Earth from harmful ultraviolet radiation. One stripping mechanism is for gas to be caught in bubbles of magnetic field, which are ripped off by solar winds.
