Question
Chapter 23.4, Problem 4QC
Summary Introduction
To review:
The process of synthesis of fatty acids.
Introduction:
The fatty acids are comprised of long aliphatic chains of carbon. The length of the carbon chain varies, and at the terminus of fatty acids, carboxylic acids are present. Fatty acids may or may not contain double bonds. The fatty acids consisting of double bonds are classified as unsaturated fatty acids.
