- Fats and oils are both triglycerides. Which description(s) below are true regarding the difference(s) between fats and oils? Fats and oils are both triglycerides. Which description(s) below are true regarding the difference(s) between fats and oils? Steroid All statements are true except A. Fats are solid at room temperature because they are saturated triglycerides. Fats are produced by animals and oils by plants. Oils are liquid at room temperature because they are unsaturated triglycerides. Fats and oils have the same properties and characteristics and are not different from one another.arrow_forwardFood faddists often make exaggerated claims about certain types of food. For instance, some promoters of weight-loss diets claim that carbohydrate (for example, rice) is harmful and should be omitted from the diet or intake of carbohydrate significantly reduced. There is a saying that “fats burn in the fire of carbohydrates”. What is the meaning of this? What would be the effect of a significant reduction in carbohydrate intake on the utilization of fats for energy? Cite the biochemical mechanisms that support your answer.arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements describes one reason that plant oils are generally healthier for human consumption than animal fats? Plant oils usually have a lower melting point than fats. Plant oils are glycerol based rather than phospholipid based. Plant oils usually have a higher degree of saturation than animal fats. Plant oils usually have longer chain fatty acids than animal fats. Plant oils usually contain more unsaturated fatty acids than animal fats.arrow_forward

- Which of the following statements regarding trans fatty acids is FALSE? Trans fatty acids increase the shelf-life of processed foods. Trans fatty acids were saturated fatty acids prior to hydrogenation. A diet that is rich in trans fatty acids increases the risk of heart disease, and therefore trans fatty acids in foods must be labeled. Trans fatty acids are a byproduct of hydrogenating fats.arrow_forwardSome Fats are visible such as those in butter, shortening, and oil. Fat is not bad at all. It insulates the body. It makes food taste better. An excess of it, however, can lead to weight gain and heart disease. Questions: 1. What are the health effect of lipids? 2. Which is better butter or margarine? Why?arrow_forwardHow much total fat, saturated fat and trans fat does this product contain per serving? How many grams of total fat would a person consume by eating the whole container? Based on a 2,000 calorie diet, what percent of the percent daily value for total fat would be consumed per serving? Calculate the percent if the whole container was consumed. Based on what you know about trans fats, do you think there are hydrogenated oils in this product? Explain.arrow_forward
