Solution

The correct option is D a, b
A hydrocarbon is termed as unsaturated if it contains atleast on carbon-carbon double or triple bond.
structure 'a' contains double bond so it is a unsaturated compound.
Structure 'b' contains both double and triple bond so they are unsaturated compound.
Structure 'c' and 'd' have no double or triple bond so they are saturated compound.
