Solution
The correct option is A Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
Fatty acids which lack any double or triple bond in their hydrocorbon chain are known as saturated fatty acids .Example lauric acid,palmitic acid, stearic acid etc in contrast to saturated fatty acids, unsaturated fatty acids have one or more double bonds between carbon atoms at fixed place along the hydrocarbon chain. Example palmitoleic acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid, linoeledic acid, arachidonic acid
etc.
So, the correct answer is A 'Both Assertion and Reason are correct and reason is the correct explanation for assertion'
