**Exercise: Identify the Bond Configurations in an Unsaturated Fatty Acid** **Task:** Classify the bonds labeled 1 and 2 in the following unsaturated fatty acid. **Diagram Explanation:** The diagram displays an unsaturated fatty acid with its carbon chain. Two double bonds are labeled as 1 and 2. The molecular structure is a zigzag line with a carboxyl group (COOH) at the right end. The first double bond, labeled 1, and the second double bond, labeled 2, are located along the carbon chain. **Answer Options:** A) cis, cis B) cis, trans C) **trans, cis** D) trans, trans **Correct Answer:** C) trans, cis This implies the first double bond has a trans configuration and the second double bond has a cis configuration.
