Solution

The correct option is D only C-C single bond
Fatty acids are a type of lipids which have a carboxyl group attached to an R group. They could be saturated or unsaturated. Saturated fatty acids have only C-C single bond without any double or triple bond. Whereas, unsaturated fatty acids have one or more C=C double or CC triple bonds.
