### Question 18:The molecular structure shown here represents which lipid component?a) saturated fatty acid b) simple lipid c) monounsaturated fatty acid d) trans fatty acid e) polyunsaturated fatty acid ### Detailed Explanation:**Molecular Structure:** - The structure features a long hydrocarbon chain with a terminal carboxyl group (COO-). - There is a double bond present in the chain, indicating unsaturation. The rest of the chain consists of single-bonded carbon and hydrogen atoms.### Options Explained:- **Saturated Fatty Acid:** No double bonds between carbon atoms.- **Simple Lipid:** Generally refers to esters of fatty acids with alcohols, such as triglycerides.- **Monounsaturated Fatty Acid:** Contains one double bond in the hydrocarbon chain.- **Trans Fatty Acid:** Contains trans double bonds, as opposed to cis double bonds, affecting the geometry and properties.- **Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid:** Contains more than one double bond.**Conclusion:** Based on the structure, which includes one double bond, option c) "monounsaturated fatty acid" is correct.

"Potassium Bromate (KBr03) is added to flour as a softener that strengthens the texture of bread. It can do this by forming disulfide bonds between two cysteine amino acids in a reaction similar to the chemical equation given below. The function of KBr03 is to remove the 2 electrons needed to form the disulfide bond as shown in the figure below. Each of the cysteine amino acids will be in a protein chain, so the reaction binds the two chains together, giving the dough cohesion. However, potassium bromate is a proven carcinogen and is only allowed in foods in the United States because bakers will add the right amount and correct It has been assumed to meet the temperature and cooking time conditions.
