Which one is not found in fatty acids in acylglycerols____________?
Correct answer: B. C-25
- A. C-6
- B. C-25
- C. C-26
- D. C-30
Explanation
Fatty acids in ordinary acylglycerols generally have an even number of carbon atoms because they are assembled from two-carbon units, whereas C-25 is odd. The likely mistake is C-30, because it is a long chain, but its even carbon number does not violate the usual pattern.
