Answer:

contain fewer double bonds

Explanation:

Coconut oil is an oil extracted from coconut fruit and there are two types of this functional food, refined and extra virgin. The first is made from dried coconut while the second is made with fresh coconut. In the latter case, it should be extracted within 48 hours of harvesting, preferably from a fruit that comes from a certified organic plantation. In both cases coconut oil has characteristics similar to oils of animal origin, because it has less fewer double bonds than other vegetable oils, presenting a high content of saturated fat.

Palm oil, as well as coconut oil, is a versatile and inexpensive oil used in the cosmetics industry. Palm oil has been used frequently in the manufacture of creams, soaps and detergents for personal hygiene. And in the food industry, this oil is also present in so-called "healthy" products: organic, vegetarian, vegan, etc. However, it is also similar to animal oils, for the same reason as coconut oil, ie it contains fewer double bonds than other vegetable oils.

For a family of four, a first aid kit would include scissors. A multi-purpose tool would come handy, but is not necessary. Rubbing alcohol is out of the ordinary, and barbiturates are a type of drug unneeded in a first aid kit.
