How many triacylglycerols can be prepared from three different fatty acids? Draw all possible structures, excluding stereoisomers.
Saturated fatty acids are solid at room temperature, while unsaturated fatty acids are often liquid. This difference occurs because saturated fatty
acids have

Trans-unsaturated fatty acids stack like unsaturated fatty acids and cost more energy to metabolize, making it substantially more dangerous to consume. Trans-unsaturated fatty acids stack like saturated fatty acids and cost more energy to metabolize, making it substantially more dangerous to consume. Trans-unsaturated fatty acids stack like saturated fatty acids and cost less energy to metabolize, making it substantially more dangerous to consume. None of the other answers are correct. O Trans-unsaturated fatty acids stack like unsaturated fatty acids and cost less energy to metabolize, making it substantially more dangerous to consume.arrow_forward
