Big Idea 2: Term 37

Unsaturated Fat: Unsaturated fats have fatty acids
with double bonded carbons. Therefore, the chain
isn't completely saturated with hydrogens bonded
to the carbon atoms. These lipids, like olive oil, do
not stack on each other well because the double bonds
cause kinks in the fat's structure.
