Fats comprise fatty acids and glycerol. A type of fat in which fatty acids predominantly comprise single bonds are saturated fats.These fats are saturated with hydrogen molecules where the single bonds exist between carbon molecules only. Mostly they are solid at room temperature. Few examples of these fats are ice creams, butter, red meat, lard, chicken skin, etc. Learn some important questions on this topic.
