Which feature do monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids share? They have no carbon-carbon double bonds in their fatty acid tails. They are generally solid at room temperature. They contain fewer hydrogen atoms than saturated fats with the same number of carbon atoms. They have more carbon-carbon double bonds in their fatty acid tails.

Recently it has been suggested that using oils with more monounsaturated fatty acids (e.g., oleic acid) is better for our health than those with polyunsaturated fatty acids or saturated fatty acids. What are good sources of oils with predominantly monounsaturated fatty acids?
