The presence of double bonds in a fatty acid chain means that it is unsaturated.

<h3>What are fatty acids?</h3>

Fatty acids are a type of carboxylic acid. Specifically, these carboxylic acids have aliphatic chains.

Fatty acids are of two types:

  1. Saturated fatty acids
  2. Unsaturated fatty acids

Saturated fatty acids are said to be saturated because they cannot undergo additional reactions. They do not have double or single bonds in their sturctures.

Unsaturated fatty acids, on the other hand, are said to be unsaturated because of the presence of double bonds. Consequently, they are able to undergo additional reactions unlike their saturated counterparts.

Why would bourses and mountain goats have hooves
photoshop1234 [79]
Think of it like this.  Horses do a LOT of galloping, which is hard on the feet!  Hooves are a physical ADAPTATION, so that the horses won't experience pain on their journeys.  They're hard, so that the horses don't feel the ground nearly as much.  Now, mountain goats travel over rough terrain, with sharp rocks and steep inclines.  Again, it's really easy for them to get hurt strutting around the mountains, so they evolved hard hooves to protect their feet.
