Which statement best describes a difference between saturated fats and unsaturated fats?

Biology
2 answers:
Natali5045456 [20]2 years ago

Answer:

B.

Explanation:

Unsaturated fats are fats that have one or more carbon-carbon double bond in their chain. The double bond causes the molecule to bend. The molecules do not stack well, which causes the intermolecular forces to be much weaker than those of saturated fats. This causes the melting points to be lower for unsaturated fats.

Hope that helps.

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Saturated fats have no double bonds, only single bonds between their carbons. This fact enables them to "stack" efficiently and pack tightly, which means the molecule has a high melting point and remains solid even at a relatively high temperature. Butter or bacon fat will definitely solidify in the fridge, and often stay solid outside the fridge.

Therefore unsaturated fats have double bonds (eliminate A and C) and a lower melting point (eliminate D)

In about 120 words , write​ an essay about a birthday celebration you enjoyed​.​
kozerog [31]
I would like to talk about a birthday celebration that I attended 2/3 months ago. It was one of my friends' birthday who turned 25 that day. My friend's name is Ryan and his parents wanted to celebrate his birthday just before his departure to United Kingdom. Ryan invited almost all of his close friends and 6-7 of us attended the birthday celebration together. Apart from us, there were as many as 100 other people present on the occasion. I did not know most of them but my guess is that they would be mostly Ryan's relatives, neighbors and his father's colleagues.

The party was celebrated at my friend's house at tohana. We went there together and bought a present for the Ryan. After reaching there, Ryan and his parents warmly welcomed us. Later Ryan introduced us to his relatives and to some of his neighbors. We were astonished when we saw the huge birthday cake. 25 candles of different colors were lit around the cake and the whole house was redecorated for the occasion. Anybody could say that some occasion was going on in this house without knowing anything.

We sang the birthday song when Ryan cut the cake. We congratulated him and wished him a prosperous life ahead. Then we ate cake and had a good feast. The foods were delicious and good. We, friends of our circle, went to visit a nearby place and sang different songs. In the evening we went to Ryan's house again and attended a raffle draw. That was a very exciting part of the birthday celebration. Then after few minutes we left the party and went our homes.

What are possible benefits of studying Biology?
IRINA_888 [86]
Science means to know. Biology is the study of living things.
You understand a lot more of the function of the body (EMT, healthcare, diseases, etc.)
animals (veterinary work,etc.) You will understand the intro into genetics, and the ways in which the sun and plants directly influences our entire world.
Biology is a form of science that is pretty broad, and at the same time a form of science you can use in every day life of understanding the basic things that happen around you (in culture, family, news, environment, behavioural, etc.)
Biology is also a great way to get your feet wet into basic science- a launching pad for chemistry, physics, etc. Hope this helped. :)

What does planarian regeneration tell us about human regeneration?
AlekseyPX
A planarian can regrow any missing body part. Truth be told, in the event that you take a planarian and excise it into a few little pieces, every last one of those body sections can recover into an entirely different worm.
