Students have asked these similar questions
There are structural differences between saturated fatty acids, cis-unsaturated fatty acids, and
trans-unsaturated fatty acids.
• Why have some cities banned the use of trans-unsaturated fatty acids at restaurants?
Trans-unsaturated fatty acids stack like unsaturated fatty acids and cost more energy to metabolize,
making it substantially more dangerous to consume.
Trans-unsaturated fatty acids stack like saturated fatty acids and cost more energy to metabolize,
making it substantially more dangerous to consume.
Trans-unsaturated fatty acids stack like saturated fatty acids and cost less energy to metabolize, making
it substantially more dangerous to consume.
None of the other answers are correct.
O Trans-unsaturated fatty acids stack like unsaturated fatty acids and cost less energy to metabolize,
making it substantially more dangerous to consume.
