Answer:

The answer is A

Explanation:

The answer is A because the fatty acid is 10 carbon-chain long which falls within the range of a medium-chain fatty acid and it has a single bond which means it is monounsaturated fatty acids.

Monounsaturated fatty acids, as the name implies have a double bond with all other carbon atoms being in a single bond in the fatty acid chain. For this reason; they have a higher melting point compared to polyunsaturated fatty acids which have more double bonds in the fatty acid chain.

Medium-chain fatty acids are fatty acids that are six to twelve carbon atoms long.

A, b, and c are all correct.

take for example finches off of the galapagos islands. they vary from island to island, yet are still the same bird. on one island they have bigger, more durable and stronger beaks, because that island has many nuts to crack open and eat. on another island, they have thin ling beaks, ideal for pecking at insects in the grass on tree bark. evolution is literally survival of the ifttest, where those equipped best will live and those without means to fight for life will die off, leaving those most capable of reproduction and passing down genes.

No I don’t think it is possible because we barely made a dent in the earths crust and if we were able to drill through the crust we would reach a lava layer that would kill you
