Answer: Single covalent bond in the long hydrocarbon chain.
Saturated fatty acids are long chains of hydrocarbon ( with single covalent bond) ending with the carboxylic group (-COOH). This means those fatty acids which possess only single bonds in their chemical structure are called as saturated fatty acids. They are densely packed, which makes them solid at room temperature.
Example- Lauric acid ( present in coconut oil). It has 12 carbon atoms in its chemical structure.
Answer:
c) adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH).
Explanation:
A tropic hormone is defined as the hormone which is secreted from one gland and acts on another gland. ACTH is released by anterior portion of our pituitary gland during the condition of biological stress. After it is released, it acts on adrenal gland so that adrenal gland could secrete another hormone named as cortisol (steroid hormone). In response to stress, cortisol increases blood sugar level, elevates brain's use of glucose etc. so as to counter stressful situation.
Apart from this cortisol also helps in regulating our metabolism, reduces inflammation and controls salt and water balance.
