Choose the correct answer and Explain why. The fatty acids of Triglycerides are classified as saturated, unsaturated, or trans fats. What is about the structure of these compounds that gives them their physical characteristics? A) Unsaturated and trans fats are the same; the fatty acids are just found on opposite sides of a trans fat. B) Saturated fats and trans fats contain the greatest possible number of hydrogen atoms, while unsaturated fats do not. C) Saturated and unsaturated fats have stable configurations, while trans fats are transient. D) Unsaturated fats and trans fats have some double bonded carbon atoms, while saturated fats do not.
