Vegetable shortening is a food product rich in trans fatty acids. It is produced by converting several cis double bonds totransd
liraira [26]

Answer:

Partial hydrogenation

Explanation:

Vegetable oils naturally contain cis fatty acids. These fatty acids have double bonds and the two H atoms are on the same side of bond, producing a kink in  the structure.

Cis fatty acids are converted into trans fatty acids by the process of partial hydrogenation or vegetable shortening. Hydrogen is added to convert some of the double bonds into single bonds but all double bonds are not removed. However, the cis double bonds end up getting converted to trans double bonds. H atoms are now on the opposite sides of the double bond. This arrangement makes the kink disappear from the structure hence trans fat is structurally similar to saturated animal fat. It increases the longevity of fats and makes it solid at room temperature but also has many side effects like increasing bad LDL cholesterol in blood.

Which statement best describes human eye color?
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

The most appropriate answer would be option 2.

In humans, the color of the eyes was thought as a simple Mendelian trait however, it has been found that the color of the eye follows polygenic inheritance, that is, it is determined by multiple genes.

A set of 15 genes is responsible for the color of the eyes. Two genes out of these 15 are OCA2 and HERC2 which are present on chromosome 15.

Thus we can conclude that eye colour is polygenic trait which does not follow Mendelian genetics.
