name the two substances which on undergoing oxidation result in rancidity
Answers
Answer:
fats and oils
Explanation:
because on oxidation they become rancid

Answer:
Explanation:
Rancidity creates stinking foul smell of the food by breaking down the bonds bonded to each other, where a double bond is broken to fork a aldehyde compound. Reactions of Rancidity occur by media of exposure, such as, air and water. The change of flavour, texture, taste and smell forms which is well attributed to the aldehyde compounds, by the process of oxidation. Many of oily and fatty compounds have 900 to 1000 kilocalories per hundred grams. Fats and oils are some of the excellent known sources to provide Vitamins which are soluble in Fats, they are, Vitamin A, D, E and K. Vegetable oils which are firstly refined and undergoing the process of hydrogenation are found to be in the absence of Vitamin A, moreover Oils derived from vegetables are a good source to obtain Vitamin E.
Rancidity (continuing from above) is regarded as the total spoilage of essential and non-essential Fats when they are stored in for long periods of time. The worst affecting type of fat is the unsaturated fat which are having faster processing of chemical changes than the usual saturated Fats. Sour and tasteless texture will be noticed first. Rancidity can pursue two criterion, one is Oxidation (by oxidising substances) and the other is Hydrolysis. In Oxidation the majorly found unsaturated Fats containing Lipoxygenase (enzymes having iron which has the infective of catalysing the component present in Fats called polyunsaturated fatty acids found in lipids by the assistance of oxioreductase enzyme called as Dioxygenases) are changing the chemical structure by oxidative changes, as, they have polyunsaturated fatty acid. Most of the Fats which are saturated escape this criteria, some unsaturated Fats which are extremely "Hydrogenated" too will require more oxidative altercation in order to transmute the total structure as a whole. Hydrolysis have enzymatic composition alternating the chemical structure by decomposition of Fats into the usual fatty acids and glycerol. Lipase enzymes bring about the changes and abide with the conversion of Fats, Heating throughout the container will make the enzyme irregular in shape and will no longer bind to a substrate to change chemically (stops the catalysation of triglycerides avoiding Hydrolysis or Hydrolytic Rancidity). One source for this could be microorganisms which bring Lipase enzyme into Fats and oils, in this case too heating will remove the lipases from them.
In order to prevent Rancidification and Rancidity in total the appropriate container with Fats and oils present on high amounts, should be refrigerated, this allows to lower the temperature and decrease Rancidity (enzymes stop reacting at low temperatures). are some other naturally occurring substances found to be added in order to reduce Rancidity, some sources of it (natural in foods and not synthetic), are, , and plausible case of carrots having , so, the group of Antioxidants are the general name of the substance which are added to Fats and oils to prevent Rancidity.
