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.

Compare and contrast. what three elements do all macromolecules share? explain how the chemical properties of lipids, nucleic ac
inn [45]

All macromolecules have carbon atom and the hydrogen atom.

<h3>What are macromolecules?</h3>

The term macromolecules refers to the molecules that are composed of smaller units. These smaller units are called monomers. The macromolecules that we are concerned with here are the macromolecules that could be found in the human body.

The biological macromolecules are often very large as we can see. This is because the number of units that are joined to form the macromolecules are usually very much. There are thousands of monomer molecules that are joined together to give proteins, lipids, carbohydrates and the nucleic acid macromolecules.

All the macromolecules have the carbon atom and the hydrogen atom. These are found across all the macromolecules. The carbohydrates are reducing sugars thus they contain the carbonyl bond. The carbonyl group is absent in lipids, nucleic acids, proteins, and amino hence they do not undergo carbonyl reduction reactions.
