Unsaturated fats that chains in their polymer chains as shown in the diagram in C. These kinks reduced the levels of compaction between adjacent polymer chains because they disrupt the hydrogen bonds between the chains . Therefore, the oils will not be solid at room temperature. This is why they are called unsaturated fats.
